  1. It's fallow deer breeding season on our place, and they're keen for a punch up. Unfortunately for the big chocolate fellow here, his day ended early as part of our conservation and control efforts.

    Older animals need to be taken out of the gene pool so that younger animals get opportunities to breed, and as they are an invasive species, we need to put some effort into control and reduction in numbers.

  2. Fallow Deer (Woodland Collection by CollectA)

    Before we begin the review, I would like to extend my gratitude towards Happy Hen Toys for sending this figure along as a review sample. Check out their large selection of animal and dinosaur figures by clicking the banner below.

    With their broad, palmate antlers and chestnut, spotted coat, the fallow deer of the Dama genus are among the most visually striking of all deer species. Two species […]

  5. The two brown-grey fallow deer does here look like they’re about ready to drop fawns. It’s that time of the year.

    They don’t belong here, as they’re introduced (nearly 200 years ago), but they’re here now, so managing them becomes a priority.

  11. The cat, Coco, is very curious about this thing sitting in *her* garden spot, so now we have a standoff.

  12. This boofhead decided to ignore its mama calling and camp in our front garden this morning. Its family group move through our front yard early most days.

    It’ll reunite with the group later, but right now it’s being recalcitrant.

  13. I wondered what the dogs were growling at as we watched TV last night. This is one of several piles of fresh fallow deer poop, less than 2m from our front veranda.

  14. #ParksCanada is defending the $12-million price tag for its plan to kill all the #FallowDeer on #SidneyIsland as part of an #EcologicalRestoration project.

    The federal agency has been under intense #criticism for months for spending millions on a program to #eradicate fallow #deer on the 9 sq km island, a portion of which is part of the #GulfIslandsNationalParkReserve, while the rest is privately owned.

  17. Zoals beloofd, nadat de edelherten die in de avondzon aan het bunkeren waren verjaagd waren zag ik nog een damhert en later meer. Deze heb ik ook nog even gefilmd. Je ziet dat ze nog niet zover zijn met het opzetten van een gewei. Een aantal ligt te slapen/dommelen en de rest ligt relaxed te herkauwen.
    NB dit is niet in een hertenkamp, het hek is alleen om wilde zwijnen te weren, de damherten kunnen de hele Veluwe overzwerven.

  18. A selection of photos from trail cameras on our property over the past week (ignore the fact I obviously failed to set the date and time on one camera correctly):
    - a pair of wonga pigeons (Leucosarcia melanoleuca) at our deer wallow
    - a melanistic fallow deer (Dama dama) buck with large, well-developed antlers
    - a menil fallow deer buck with strong antler genetics
    - one of the local foxes (Vulpes vulpes)

  19. Fallow #Deer with Two-Pointed #Antlers Lived alongside Neanderthals
    sci.news/paleontology/dama-cel

    The #FallowDeer Dama celiae sp. nov. with two-pointed antlers from the Middle #Pleistocene of Madrid, a contemporary of humans with #Acheulean technology link.springer.com/article/10.1

    Cut marks suggest that it was consumed by #Neanderthals and probably was hunted.

  20. A family group of fallow deer were near our dam as I arrived home from #RFS training. I count two does with December fawns at heel, a yearling doe, and a yearling buck, who has managed to grow a single spike antler at the end of his first year. He'll be off with the big boys next year.
    For many reasons, some people don't like them. While I acknowledge them as an introduced species that can be a pest presence, we don't have so many here as to cause damage. I feel fortunate to have them so close, alongside our native fauna.

  21. This unit was hanging out at my back fence this morning. He was spectacular - thick through the chest, a big wide rack with great balance, and menil colouring. As soon as he picked me up moving *inside the house* he made off.
    There was another big buck and a doe about 30m further away.

  22. One of two fallow deer bucks coming into antler that were about 20m off our back fence this morning. I didn't have time to get decent shots before they moved down the hill behind them. Hopefully, they'll be back in the next couple of days.

  23. Happy weekend!

    Did you know fallow deer come in a wide variety of colors? They’re best known as having a brownish body with checkered white spots, but can range from black to white. I photographed this buck on a rainy day in the dunes.

    Fallow deer are technically a non-native species in Western Europe. They were introduced from Turkey by the Romans almost 2000 years ago.

  24. He's back for another visit! That's three mornings this week. He's likely looking to group up with other males pre-rut and has decided that the target represents an older, more mature buck to hang out with. Allison has decided his name is Gus.

  25. CW: Wild deer

    A young fallow deer buck is just hanging out having breakfast 30m from the house. He's very likely attracted to the archery target as they are starting to get hormonal as they grow their antlers for the rut in March and April.
