Red Deer hunting

Red deer are the UK's largest deer species and the largest land animals. The males have spectacular antlers, which branch out and can span over 1m wide. They shed them every winter. The size and complexity of the antlers increase as the stag gets older. They are rarely used as weapons but more as a status symbol. Red deer have reddish-brown fur in summer, which becomes grey-brown in winter.

Red deer normally live in small single-sex herds and get together in autumn when the rutting season begins. Stags are very noisy during the rut and their bellowing can be heard from half a kilometre away. Females are solitary when giving birth, but then gather into herds with their young and non-breeding males.

Red stags inhabit forests, particularly conifer plantations in Scotland, but also open hillsides and moorland in Scotland and the Pennines.

Red deer are common in Scotland, including some of the Scottish islands. However, there are also scattered populations in England, including the New Forest, the Pennines, the Peak District, Cumbria, parts of East Anglia and parts of the south-west. They are commonly kept in deer parks throughout the country. Small populations also occur in Wales and Ireland.
