  <dc:description>&lt;p&gt;The choice of agents for chemical immobilization of mule deer (&lt;i&gt;Odocoileus hemionus&lt;/i&gt;) is a problem with a simple and effective solution, in my opinion. I recommend combinations of etorphine hydrochloride (M199&lt;sup&gt;&lt;span&gt;©&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;) and xylazine hydrochloride (Rompun&lt;sup&gt;&lt;span&gt;©&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;) administered intravenously and reversed intravenously. I have used this combination on hundreds of mule deer and have supervised its use on hundreds more. It is a forgiving combination in terms of safety to the deer. I have never seen a mortality in mule deer that I could blame on this combination of drugs, which, in my experience, has performed well under a wide variety of environmental, physiological and organizational conditions.&lt;/p&gt;</dc:description>
