Venison - Red Deer

Red Deer is Wild Scottish game at its best; these majestic animals dominate the highlands of Scotland and are flourishing in their natural environment.  Due to substantial over population a program of balancing out the population has been in place for some time. This keeps the environmental impact in check while providing a consistent supply of meat. The shooting season in Scotland for stags (males) from July 1st until October 20th and hinds (females) are from October 21st until Feb 15th.   There are some estates which are licensed to shoot all year round as well.

Normally Roe Deer are found in Southern Scotland and Northern England. A small cousin of the red thrives in a lusher green environment.  Often you will see them grazing in low lying areas. The Roe Deer are thriving in number and although they are hunted, it is in much smaller numbers than the red. The shooting season is for the Stags April 1st until October 20th and then the hinds are October 21st until March 31st.
