Big game

Red deer (Cervus elaphus)

Hunting Seasons:

• males and their offspring—from September 1 to January 31;
• females—from October 1 to December 31;

The red deer is a powerful and beautiful forest animal. In summer, the fur is red-brown, and in winter, gray-brown. The belly and back around the tail /20-25cm/ is off-white to cream and forms a so-called "mirror". The height at the withers /height of the body at the front legs/ reaches 1.20 to 1.50 m., the weight in males reaches 350 kg, and in hinds up to 150 kg. The deer changes its fur in spring and autumn - this is called "molting". Male deer have thick antlers that they replace every year.
