Cervid ecological zones

Broad management guidance is applied across each Cervid Ecological Zone (CEZ) to help set local population and habitat objectives.

CEZs reflect the overarching cervid management intent at the landscape level. The foundation for CEZs is Ontario’s Ecological Land Classification, with consideration given to:

cervid species ranges
landscape level variations in habitat and climate

CEZs build on the existing Wildlife Management Unit network while recognizing that species and habitat ranges fluctuate over time.
