| Abstract | Applied Ethology to management of red deer populations in south-western Iberian peninsula: game production and conservation.Game management of red deer (Cervus elaphus) is the main economic use of land in many areas of mediterranean woodland (dehesas) in southwestern Iberia. During the last two decades many estates have been fenced to allow a more intensive management of deer populations with independence from the sourrounding areas. This use has generated new problems which claim for new solutions to make compatible the economic use of game populations and the conservation of the ecosystems where they live. The knowledge of the behavioural ecology of big game species, especially of red deer, has an important role in providing solutions for this intensive management. Here I review some of the main problems including transformation of the vegetal cover, food supplementation, population structure, culling criteria and genetical effects. |
