malkiserow Posted January 23, 2014 Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 (edited) I am after some good books on deer, in particular for Roe and Muntjac. After those 2 species, Fallow are also of interest. Finally Sika and Reds. Any suggestions of books you thought were excellent on the subject? Edit: For stalking and understanding their behaviour Edited January 23, 2014 by malkiserow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cleaner4hire Posted January 23, 2014 Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 I find these good: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Muntjac-Managing-Species-Charles-Smith-Jones/dp/190478402X http://www.amazon.co.uk/Roe-Deer-Management-Richard-Prior/dp/1840371382 However you can never have too many good books IMO.

kent Posted January 23, 2014 Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 I have never read much worthwhile on Sika, For fallow the std works to start with is Fallow Deer by Donald and Norma Clark. Coch-y-Bonddu books did a re-print in 1997 ISBN 0 9528510 5 9. Sika in my experience behave very differently depending on were they are and which of the two strains. I spend a lot of time watching Sika here and they are certainly the most wary and intelligent deer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malkiserow Posted January 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 hi malk this cover all deer ... http://www.bookdepository.co.uk/book/9780811711135?redirected=true&gclid=CMLlmq6ClLwCFUZY3godhjQATg Thanks for that but I am really after books on stalking and animal behaviour rather than cooking. Looks a good one though.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cleaner4hire Posted January 24, 2014 Report Share Posted January 24, 2014 I think I have more prior books than any other author. His books are a really good read Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beardo Posted January 24, 2014 Report Share Posted January 24, 2014 The DSC1 manual is a must have. The Downing books are pretty good as well http://www.grahamdowning.com/graham-downing-books.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
