Query Species
Fallow deer are native to Europe, but have been introduced to many other parts of the world, including North America, Australia, and New Zealand. They can thrive in a variety of habitats, including forests, grasslands, and agricultural areas.
Fallow deer are medium-sized, with bucks typically weighing between 120-220 pounds, while does typically weigh between 75-150 pounds. They typically stand about 3-4 feet tall at the shoulder.
Fallow deer have a distinctive coat coloration that can range from a light tan to a dark brown, with white spots on their back and sides. They also have a white rump patch bordered by a black horseshoe shape.
When hunting fallow deer, hunters should consider using a rifle with a caliber suitable for deer hunting, such as a .243 or .308. Hunters should also wear appropriate camouflage clothing and boots, and bring binoculars and a rangefinder.
Fallow deer are typically most active during early morning and late evening, making those times ideal for hunting. Hunters should also look for areas where deer are known to feed or bed down, such as open fields or wooded areas near water sources.
When aiming at a fallow deer, hunters should aim for the heart/lung area, located behind the front shoulder. This shot placement will ensure a quick and humane kill.
