Fallow Deer
Dama dama
The Fallow deer is one of the most beautiful of the exotic hunts. Their shorter legs – but stockier bodies – make it seemingly impossible to support the massive plate-type antlers, which each can reach an impressive 20” wide. To watch the Fallow Deer in motion is pure poetry – but their sharp senses keep them on high alert and they are easily spooked.
With expressive eyes and enormous ears, these beautiful animals have enhanced senses, allowing them to keep on alert from hunters. The Fallow Deer tend to move about in the open grasslands and lightly wooded areas, with ample room for their impressive racks. Your expert guide is a wealth of knowledge of these exotic deer, and are familiar with the individual herds that traverse the scrub brush and open grasslands. Propped behind a blind overlooking a watering or grazing area will give you the necessary hunter’s edge.
More About The Fallow Deer:
The Fallow deer prefers a simple diet of green grass and other simple vegetation – but can’t resist corn or other grain. We make sure all of our wildlife has access to highly nutritious supplements to their natural feeding.
The skittish Fallow Deer is best spotted and dropped from sitting in a blind, and our guides know the perfect spots.
The Fallow Deer live about 14 years, and the females have been known to age upwards of 18 years.
Preferring shrub brush terrain, the Fallow Deer also tend to meander through the open grasslands, and can be spotted socializing near watering holes.
The plate-type antlers of the Fallow Deer average 28-30” long – but the wide, flat antlers make an astonishing trophy. When it comes to an impressive trophy, remember that just length don’t matter – overall size and bulk are what you’re looking for.
Very social, the distinctive all-male or female/fawn herds will intermingle during grazing – and often times travel together – while remaining loyal to their group.
