THE FIRST HALF of the twentieth century was a dark age for British deer, in England especially. Two world wars and their aftermath saw the closure of very many ancient deer parks. Some were converted to farmland for wartime and post war food production. Others were requisitioned as sites for military camps or for other defence purposes. Yet others fell into neglect, with no staff to keep walls and fences in good repair. In some cases all the deer were shot. In many others some deer survived by escaping into neighbouring open countryside, where they found refuge in woodland and established wild populations where none had previously existed. These wild deer caused damage to farm and forest crops, and there were calls for their destruction. There being no established tradition, in lowland Britain as a whole, of controlling wild Deer numbers by methods recognised as humane, recourse was had to snare and shotgun. Lingering deaths from strangulation and horrendous suffering by Deer shot but not killed outright and never recovered were all too frequently the result. To complicate matters further, there were no legal close times or close seasons when Deer might not be killed to avoid orphaning dependent young or for other good reasons, in which respect Britain was almost unique among other European countries. People who knew how these things were managed so much better in mainland Europe, and a few concerned and articulate Britons, made known their deep dissatisfaction about the situation here, but for many years theirs were voices which seemed to be crying in the wilderness. The first hopeful signs that a better future might prove possible were a re awakened interest in mammals as subjects worthy of closer attention by British naturalists and others during the early post war period. In the absence of a suitable national organisation to serve their specific interests, deer minded people linked up with others mainly by chance, or not at all. To quote an example from the personal experience of the writer, and which was to have far reaching repercussions entirely unforeseen at the time, in one of its issues in 1950 the magazine Country Life published a letter by a certain Gerald Johnstone appealing for information on deer distribution in these islands for the purposes of a survey he was conducting. Having been interested in this aspect of deer since my teenage years or earlier, I wrote to Gerald Johnstone and gave him such details as I had garnered. Quite unexpectedly, he invited me to partner him on his study, undertaken purely as a hobby, mainly by writing to masters of foxhounds and others likely to know what deer occurred in particular areas, I agreed to do so without hesitation. Another of Johnstone’s correspondents was a Norfolk schoolmaster, F.J. (Jim) Taylor Page, who taught biology at Norwich Grammar School and was hoping Johnstone could help him with a study of his own, the significance, if any, of the presence of the fungus ergot as a determinant for the location of roe deer rutting rings. Having no knowledge whatsoever of this esoteric subject, Johnstone passed on Jim’s letter to me. I knew nothing about it either, but did my best to divert 3 Jim’s interest to the subject of deer distribution. I had only limited success, but thus began an exchange of letters upon deer matters of all descriptions, which continued throughout Jim’s lifetime. 4 2. The Deer Group FOUNDED in 1953 as a small corresponding group of individuals with wide ranging interests in deer, under the Messianic influence of its secretary, Jim Taylor Page, The Deer Group grew in membership from an initial dozen or so to around 120 ten years later. It was hoped at the beginning that the 12th Duke of Bedford might be persuaded to serve as President. He declined to do so, however, on the grounds that as owner of one of Britain’s largest park herds of deer, at Woburn in Bedfordshire, he might be deemed to have too much of a vested interest in these animals. Naturalist author R.S.R. (Richard) Fitter and other influential people played a prominent part, however, in publicising the Group and promoting its interests. With the foundation in 1954 of The Mammal Society of Great Britain, it was seen to make sense for the tiny deer Group to merge with the new and larger organisation as a semi autonomous entity, and this was done. As paid up members of The Mammal Society, Deer Group members participated fully in the benefits of that membership as well as in those of The Deer Group, which included from the start a regular newsletter from their Secretary, typed in his inimitable style and duplicated for distribution. All the latest news from the deer front thereby reached members with little delay. Deer literature was then sparse and public awareness of deer and their place in the natural scheme of things correspondingly slight in the 1950s. There was an obvious need, therefore, for a pocket handbook on deer in Britain. Determined to fill this gap in the market, Jim Taylor Page gathered about himself a team of eight contributors with varying degrees of expertise on different aspects of their subject. Agreement to finance and publish A Field Guide to British Deer having been given by The Mammal Society, work started in earnest. As Field Guide editor, Jim had the task of knitting together harmoniously the disparate and sometimes contradictory offerings of the experts he had recruited to supply the basic facts: a task he accomplished skilfully without treading on too many toes. There remained, however, a few problems to be ironed out person to person, and for this purpose Jim called a meeting of contributors at the Bedford Arms Hotel, Woburn, in January, 1956, where most of those involved, including the writer, met each other for the very first time. Apart from its primary purpose, this meeting served an important secondary one by bringing together two who were to play an important role in putting deer management in Britain’s forests on a sounder footing. One of these was J.S.R. (Jack) Chard, Forestry Commission Conservator for North West England and one of the far seeing few in positions of authority who recognised the urgent need for radical change in the way deer in our forests and elsewhere were managed. The other was Major H.A. (Herbert) Fooks, known to his friends as “Herbie”, who had been in charge of deer management in the British zone of West Germany for several years after the Second World War and was well grounded in deer management as practised in that country. Fol1owing this encounter, Herbie was appointed as the Forestry Commission’s first ever Game Warden, with responsibility for training Commission staff responsible for pest control how to control deer selectively with the rifle 5 during specified open seasons for each species and sex Herbie was one of those present at a memorable weekend field meet held by The Deer Group that August in the Lake District. Among others present was Baron Adam Konopka, the Polish-born chairman of the St. Hubert Club of Great Britain, a sporting organisation which had already initiated training for its members of managing deer which had been long practised on the Continent and were to become the basis of how this was dealt with in Great Britain. From our hotel alongside Haweswater we were able to watch wild red deer on the fells directly opposite, which we were later to view at much closer quarters on foot in brilliant sunshine. Among those on that deer watching walk over the high ground of Martindale were Dr. Peter Delap and G. Kenneth Whitehead, who were both to become Vice Presidents of the British Deer Society, as was John Willett after a lengthy term of office as Society Chairman. We were also privileged to have with us Henry Tegner, author of many books on field sports and the countryside and of a monograph on roe deer. Henry gave me a lift to Penrith station to catch my train home the following day giving me the only opportunity I ever had to spend time in his company. First published as a pocket size hardback in 1957, A Field Guide to British Deer was an instant success.

  • Histories of Value Following Deer Populations Through the English Landscape from 1800 to the Present Day
    Holly Marriott Webb Histories of Value Following Deer Populations Through the English Landscape from 1800 to the Present Day Master’s thesis in Global Environmental History 1 Abstract Marriott Webb, H. 2019. Histories of Value: Following Deer Populations Through the English Landscape from 1800 to the Present Day. Uppsala, Department of Archaeology and Ancient His- tory. Imagining the English landscape as an assemblage entangling deer and people throughout history, this thesis explores how changes in deer population connect to the ways deer have been valued from 1800 to the present day. Its methods are mixed, its sources are conversations – human voices in the ongoing historical negotiations of the multispecies body politic, the moot of people, animals, plants and things which shapes and orders the landscape assemblage. These conversations include interviews with people whose lives revolve around deer, correspondence with the organisations that hold sway over deer lives, analysis of modern media discourse around deer issues and exchanges with the history books. It finds that a non-linear increase in deer population over the time period has been accompanied by multiple changes in the way deer are valued as part of the English landscape. Ending with a reflection on how this history of value fits in to wider debates about the proper representation of animals, the nature of non-human agency, and trajectories of the Anthropocene, this thesis seeks to open up new ways of exploring questions about human- animal relationships in environmental history. Keywords: Assemblages, Deer, Deer population, England, Hunting, Landscape, Making killable, Moots, Multispecies, Nativist paradigm, Olwig, Pests, Place, Trash Animals, Tsing, United Kingdom, Wildlife management.

  • H Ybridisation Among Deer and Its Implications for Conservation
    H ybridisation among Deer and its implications for conservation RORY HARRINGTONl INTRODUCTION The Red Deer (Cervus elaphus scoticus Lonnberg, 1906) is generally considered to be the only native hoofed animal that has lived contemporaniously with man in Ireland (Charlesworth, 1963 and O'Rourke, 1970). Ecologically, the red deer appears to be an animal of the transition zone between forest and steppe (Dzieciolowski, 1969) and it was widely distributed in Ireland up to the mid-eighteenth century (Pococke, 1752; Moryson, 1735 and Scouler, 1833). The present distribution of the species in the wild is however confined to three of the thirty two counties of Ireland and only in County Kerry are the deer considered to be indigenous. The other two counties, Wicklow and Donegal, have stock of mainly alien origin. There is a general recognition of the threat that an alien red deer stock could present to the genetic integrity of the Irish race of red deer in county Kerry if these two red deer stocks were brought into contact. However, until recently few people realized that, in areas where red deer and the exotic Japanese sika deer (Cervus nippon Temminck) are living sympatrically (within the same geographical area) as in County Kerry, there is any threat of the two species hybridising. A current ecological study of red deer and sika deer in County Wicklow has produced evidence that clearly supports the early reports made by Powerscourt (1884), Brooke (\898) and F. W. B. (J 902) that red deer and sika deer can hybridise freely. The evid­ ed~e also indicates that hybridisation between these species is an insidious phenomonen which can result in an apparent total amal­ gamation of a red deer popUlation during a relatively [hort period of time.

  • The European Fallow Deer (Dama Dama Dama)
    Heredity (2017) 119, 16–26 OPEN Official journal of the Genetics Society www.nature.com/hdy ORIGINAL ARTICLE Strong population structure in a species manipulated by humans since the Neolithic: the European fallow deer (Dama dama dama) KH Baker1, HWI Gray1, V Ramovs1, D Mertzanidou2,ÇAkın Pekşen3,4, CC Bilgin3, N Sykes5 and AR Hoelzel1 Species that have been translocated and otherwise manipulated by humans may show patterns of population structure that reflect those interactions. At the same time, natural processes shape populations, including behavioural characteristics like dispersal potential and breeding system. In Europe, a key factor is the geography and history of climate change through the Pleistocene. During glacial maxima throughout that period, species in Europe with temperate distributions were forced south, becoming distributed among the isolated peninsulas represented by Anatolia, Italy and Iberia. Understanding modern patterns of diversity depends on understanding these historical population dynamics. Traditionally, European fallow deer (Dama dama dama) are thought to have been restricted to refugia in Anatolia and possibly Sicily and the Balkans. However, the distribution of this species was also greatly influenced by human-mediated translocations. We focus on fallow deer to better understand the relative influence of these natural and anthropogenic processes. We compared modern fallow deer putative populations across a broad geographic range using microsatellite and mitochondrial DNA loci. The results revealed highly insular populations, depauperate of genetic variation and significantly differentiated from each other. This is consistent with the expectations of drift acting on populations founded by small numbers of individuals, and reflects known founder populations in the north.

Why seek to control populations of foxes, deer, hares, and mink in England and Wales? · A number of interest groups seek to control populations of foxes, deer, hares and mink for various, and often for several, reasons, summarised in Chapter 2. These reasons should be considered in the context of: ¨ An often ambivalent attitude to the species and its control. ¨ The general lack of a simple relationship between damage and abundance. ¨ Differences between perceived and actual damage sustained. · Foxes are widely controlled because they are perceived to kill livestock (lambs, poultry and piglets), game (including hares) and other ground-nesting birds. ¨ Fox predation on livestock is usually low level, but widespread and sometimes locally significant. Evidence is strong that fox predation has a significant impact on wild game populations, but less so for other ground-nesting birds.

  • Risk Assessment Information Page V1.2
    Information about GB Non-native Species Risk Assessments The Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) emphasises the need for a precautionary approach towards non-native species where there is often a lack of firm scientific evidence. It also strongly promotes the use of good quality risk assessment to help underpin this approach. The GB risk analysis mechanism has been developed to help facilitate such an approach in Great Britain. It complies with the CBD and reflects standards used by other schemes such as the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, European Plant Protection Organisation and European Food Safety Authority to ensure good practice. Risk assessments, along with other information, are used to help support decision making in Great Britain. They do not in themselves determine government policy. The Non-native Species Secretariat (NNSS) manages the risk analysis process on behalf of the GB Programme Board for Non-native Species. Risk assessments are carried out by independent experts from a range of organisations. As part of the risk analysis process risk assessments are: • Completed using a consistent risk assessment template to ensure that the full range of issues recognised in international standards are addressed. • Drafted by an independent expert on the species and peer reviewed by a different expert. • Approved by an independent risk analysis panel (known as the Non-native Species Risk Analysis Panel or NNRAP) only when they are satisfied the assessment is fit-for-purpose. • Approved for publication by the GB Programme Board for Non-native Species. • Placed on the GB Non-native Species Secretariat (NNSS) website for a three month period of public comment.

Never has this award been more richly deserved and the short citation attached to the official announcement Ludwig Macaulay MBE mentions that the award has been made in recognition of the work Ludo has done for the Fire Fighters Charity and for other community service. Ludo will never be forgotten for being the man behind the foundation of the highly successful Three Peaks Challenge that provided a range of teams from all over the country and from many organisations the opportunity to pit themselves against each other in who could produce the fastest time in completing the climbing of Snowdon, Scafell Pike and Ben Nevis. The ‘Three Peaks’ ran for many years and was only ended in 2018. But Ludo ran with great competence and commitment other sporting events over a long period of time and I doubt that anyone can calculate the precise amount of sponsorship that brought cash into a great many charities. Throughout his service in Wiltshire Fire Brigade and for many years thereafter Ludo was a staunch supporter of the Fire Services Sports and Athletics Association and few can match his record of loyalty and service to the FSSAA. But Ludo’s service to the community, and particularly to young people, extended beyond the fire service.
