Without a doubt, the BDS wouldn’t have become the successful and growing charity it is today without the extensive help and time that has been given to us by many dedicated volunteers over the last 60 years.
The British Deer Society receives regular queries from gardeners who are anxious to exclude deer, and particularly muntjac, from their vegetable patches and other places containing delicate or valuable plants.
Is climate change affecting deer? The British Deer Society is conducting a survey in order to understand how deer might be reacting to changes in their environment.
The month of May is a peak time for deer-vehicle collisions (DVCs) and the highest risks occur around sunrise, or from sunset until midnight. However, deer can be encountered on our roads throughout the year and at any time of day – if you see one always drive with added caution as there may be others.
The British Deer Society’s online taster magazine Digital Deer is out this week and packed full of deer news, information, and articles to delight all those with a love for deer.
The charity is looking to find opportunities to work with and support deer managers and stalkers throughout their career and to also learn from their experiences and insights on deer management.
The British Deer Society often receives enquiries from concerned local residents regarding new housing, solar farms or other developments on land where they regularly see deer.
The British Deer Society is regularly contacted by concerned members of the public who have observed activity related to deer management taking place. While fully appreciating their concerns we recognise that, provided it is carried out with the permission of the landowner or their representative, culling may be conducted provided that a comprehensive range of legal requirements are observed.
In 2023 an exciting new art trail is coming to Furzey Gardens, Minstead, Lyndhurst, Hampshire. The trail will see over 20 four-foot, artist-decorated, fairy doors displayed in the gardens to thrill visitors of all ages. Selected artists have now been chosen and are working away on bringing their designs to life.
There is often confusion over the difference between antlers and horns, and deer are sometimes incorrectly described as having the latter.
