Concern over low numbers of park deerpublished at 09:19
Quote MessageWe count the deer in the autumn before the rut and in the spring before the new season’s young are born. We have just carried out the spring count and it is clear that we have far fewer Red Deer calves than we should have. It seems that, as well as 30 of last year’s calves dying as a result of being chased, many of the pregnant females have suffered miscarriages. We have around a third of the number of calves that we should have.”
Peter Tyldesley, Director, Bradgate Park Trust
