Newly reprinted with updated references and a new preface by Mrs Chapman. Fallow deer are the most widely distributed deer within the United Kingdom. They have been present for many centuries and are the species most favoured in deer parks. The disbandment of many parks, especially during the first half of the twentieth century, has led to the establishment of wild populations in the countryside. Fallow deer have been translocated around the world, now being present in at least thirty-five countries. In recent years fallow deer farms have been established in several continents. In 1975 Donald and Norma Chapman produced a definitive work on this species, including a chapter on the endangered Mesopotamian fallow deer. This 1997 reprint was published by Coch-y-Bonddu Books, Machynlleth, in response to the continuing demand for the book. A Preface and a Further Reading list have been added.

Animals and Human Society provides a solid, scientific, research-based background to advance understanding of how animals impact humans. Animals have had profound effects on people from the earliest times, ranging from zoonotic diseases, to the global impact of livestock, poultry and fish production, to the influences of human-associated animals on the environment (on extinctions, air and water pollution, greenhouse gases, etc.), to the importance of animals in human evolution and hunter -gatherer communities.As a resource for both science and non-science, Animals and Human Society can be used as a text for courses in Animals and Human Society or Animal Science, or as supplemental material for Introduction to Animal Science. It offers foundational background to those who may have little background in animal agriculture and have focused interest on companion animals and horses. The work introduces livestock production (including poultry and aquaculture) but also includes coverage of companion and lab animals. In addition, animal behavior and animal perception are covered.Animals and Human Society is likewise an excellent resource for researchers, academics, or students newly entering a related field or coming from another discipline and needing foundational information, as well as interested laypersons looking to augment their knowledge on the many impacts of animals in human society. - Features research-based and pedagogically sound content, with learning goals and textboxes to provide key information - Challenges readers to consider issues based on facts rather than polemics - Poses ethical questions and raises overall societal impacts - Balances traditional animal science with companion animals, animal biology, zoonotic diseases, animal products, environmental impacts and all aspects of human/animal interaction

Deer have been central to human cultures throughout time and space: whether as staples to hunter-gatherers, icons of Empire, or the focus of sport. Their social and economic importance has seen some species transported across continents, transforming landscape as they went with the establishment of menageries and park. The fortunes of other species have been less auspicious, some becoming extirpated, or being in threat of extinction, due to pressures of over-hunting and/or human-instigated environmental change. In spite of their diverse, deep-rooted and long standing relations with human societies, no multi-disciplinary volume of research on cervids has until now been produced. This volume draws together research on deer from wide-ranging disciplines and in so doing substantially advances our broader understanding of human-deer relationships in the past and the present. Themes include species dispersal, exploitation patterns, symbolic significance, material culture and art, effects on the landscape and management. The temporal span of research ranges from the Pleistocene to the modern day and covers Europe, North America and Asia. Papers derived from international conferences held at the University of Lincoln and in Paris.

Howard Egan aka "Grandad" to his friends on the FishnHunt internet forum, has been involved with the outdoors his whole life. From Acclimatisation Societies, New Zealand Deerstalkers' Association, both at branch and national level, including a term as president, Ducks Unlimited and a host of other similar organisations. He served a term on the National Recreational Hunting Advisory Committee, was convener of the Clevedon Game Fair in 1989, and was trophy convener for the NZ Exhibition of Hunting in 1978. His passion has been for Fallow deer and much of this book revolves around a life spent hunting and studying these beautiful game animals, but hunting, particularly big game hunting, has taken him all over New Zealand as well as to Africa and North America. A truly remarkable hunting career, which continues to this day including a Fallow buck shot in 2007 which he regards as the highpoint in his hunting life. He lives (with a wetland & some Fallow deer) near the Tararuas in the Wairarapa.

The first International Conference on the Biology of Deer Production was held at Dunedin, New Zealand in 1983. That meeting provided, for the first time, a forum for those with interests in either wild deer management or farmed deer production to come together. Scientists, wild deer managers, domestic deer farmers, veterinarians, venison and antler product producers, and others were able to discuss common problems and to share their knowledge and experience. The relationships formed at that meeting, and the information amassed in the resulting Proceedings, sparked new endeavors in cervid research, management, and production. A great deal has taken place in the world of deer biology since 1983. Wild deer populations, although ever increasing in many areas of the world, face new hazards of habitat loss, environmental contamination, and overexploitation. Some species are closer to extinction than ever. Game managers often face political as well as biological challenges. Many more deer are now on farms, leading to greater concerns about disease control and increased needs for husbandry information. Researchers have accumulated considerable new in formation, some of it in areas such as biochemical genetics, not discussed in 1983.
