Growth and Variation in Fallow Deer (Dama dama L.) From Two Contrasting Habitats in Southern Britain

Acta Zoologica, Volume 107, Issue 4, Page 385-408, October 2026.
ABSTRACT We have compiled a unique data set on the age, sex, body weight and dimensions of over 500 European fallow deer from two contrasting areas of habitat in southern England: a high‐density managed parkland population and a lower‐density feral woodland one.

Comparative Metabolomics Study Revealed Difference in Central Carbon Metabolism between Sika Deer and Red Deer Antler

, 2020
The antler regeneration has been well studied for the past two decades and adopted in the regenerative medicine model for studying on developmental biology. Despite our growing knowledge of functional molecules regulating antler regeneration, we still do

Inter‐microscope comparability of dental microwear texture data obtained from different optical profilometers: Part II Deriving instrument‐specific correction equations for meta‐analyses using published data

The Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 9, Page 2455-2475, September 2026.
Abstract Dental microwear texture analysis (DMTA) has emerged as a valuable method for investigating the feeding ecology of vertebrates. Over the past decade, three‐dimensional topographic data from microscopic regions of tooth surfaces have been collected, and surface texture parameters have been published for both extant and fossil species.

Landscape distribution and habitat use of sika deer using indirect signs of deer activity: a simple tool for forest managers

Wildlife Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 5, September 2026.
The populations of many deer species across Europe are widely reported to be increasing, leading to potentially greater impacts on forest ecosystems. Our understanding of factors driving the regional distribution (e.g. 1 km2 resolution) of deer populations is, however, often limited by a lack of knowledge of where deer are within the landscape.

Phenotype of White Sika Deer Due to SCF Gene Structural Variation

, 2023
Breeding ornamental white sika deer is a new notion that can be used to broaden the sika deer industry However, it is very rare for other coat phenotypes to occur, especially white (apart from albinism), due to the genetic stability and homogeneity of ...

The relative abundance of crop and natural food influences crop consumption by brown bears

Wildlife Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 5, September 2026.
Many mammalian species now inhabit anthropogenic landscapes, and human–wildlife conflicts, particularly pertaining to crop damage, have become a significant issue. To develop more effective measures to limit crop damage caused by wildlife, it is crucial to identify how natural and anthropogenic food availability affect crop use by wildlife in the ...

Tracking and modelling native woodland expansion in the Scottish Highlands using LiDAR

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 9, September 2026.
Forest restoration projects should utilise the new LiDAR‐based pipelines to effectively map young trees, assess whether targets are met, and plan further action. Notably, the Scottish Government is now commissioning a national airborne LiDAR scan, providing a unique opportunity to upscale our algorithms to create national woodland expansion databases ...

Pathogenic Foodborne Bacteria in the Game Meat of Hunted Large Ungulates—A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 5, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Zoonotic bacterial pathogens are a major concern for food safety, yet information regarding their occurrence in game meat remains fragmented. This systematic review synthesizes available data on Salmonella spp., Shiga toxin‐producing Escherichia coli (STEC), Listeria spp., Yersinia spp., and Campylobacter spp.

Cervus nippon Sika Deer

, 2012
Cervus nippon, Sika Deer Sika deer populations in Korea have been regarded as 2 subspecies, C. n. hortulorum and C. n. mantchuricus. The Jeju population was considered as C. n. mantcuricus (Won, 1967). Sika deer on Jeju used to be abundant, but became extinct around 1915 (Mori, 1928). In 1992 and 1993, 12 Taiwanese sika deer (C. n.

Impact of interspecific relations between native red deer (Cervus elaphus) and introduced sika deer (Cervus nippon) on their rutting season in the Doupovské hory Mts.

Journal of Forest Science, 2014
The behaviour of sika and red deer during the rutting season is highly variable in relation to vocalization, habitat preference during the rut, and onset and termination of rutting.
