Roe Deer, Fallow and Sika [PDF]
Although roe deer, Capreolus capreolus, are at present fairly widely distributed in Britain, and in many areas are undoubtedly increasing and extending their range, their numbers and numerical trends vary greatly in different localities. It is, moreover, apparent that the status of the species, in given habitats, is conditioned by factors other than ...

Carcass parameters of farmed sika deer
New methods for evaluating cervid carcasses without the need to divide them into primal cuts are constantly being sought. A possible solution could be the use of indirect methods based on correlations between carcass parameters and regression equations. Therefore, the aim of this study was to characterize the carcasses of farmed males of sika deer, and

Ehrlichia chaffeensisInfection of Sika Deer, Japan
To determine whether Ehrlichia chaffeensis exists in Japan, we used PCR to examine blood from sika deer in Nara, Japan. Of 117 deer, 36 (31%) were infected with E. chaffeensis. The E. chaffeensis 16S rRNA base and GroEL amino acid sequences from Japan were most closely related to those of E. chaffeensis Arkansas.

Melatonin Promotes Superovulation in Sika Deer (Cervus nippon) [PDF]
In this study, the effects of melatonin (MT) on superovulation and reproductive hormones (melatonin, follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH) and PRL) were investigated in female sika deer. Different doses (40 or 80 mg/animal) of melatonin were subcutaneously implanted into deer before the breeding season.
