196761171bdEdinburgh: The Nature Conservancy 1967. Quarto paperbound stapled gold illustrated covers From Foreword: The purposes of this report are to review the main findings of the Nature Conservancy’s work on red deer and to draw attention to other work in progress. Nature Conservancy research on red deer began with a survey from 1953-1959 organised by Dr. Fraser Darling. This gathered information on the distrubition and abundance of red deer in Scotland by direct survey methods and demonstrated that red deer coud be counted. In six years this survey covered about 160000 acres of deer ground 112400 acres of recognised deer forest and 511000 acres of other land regularly occupied by red deer and 52653 deer were counted 16068 stags 26 242 hinds and 10 343 calves. Large scale deer surveys have now become the responsibility of the Red Deer Commission and up to the present time over half of the total ground regularly occupied by red deer over 3 million acres has now been surveyed. These extensive data are not discussed in this report since they have not yet been analysed in detail. When the island of Rhum was acquired in 1957 as a National Nature Reserve the Conservancy started managing a wild red deer population. This work was later supplemented by research on the mainland to gather comparative population data. The island and mainland deer programs are discussed in this report.
