Deer Management in Community Woodlands
Deer management is an important consideration for many community woodland groups – whether to protect young trees, encourage natural regeneration, or balance woodland biodiversity.
Date and time: to
Location: Online
Organisation: Community Woodlands
Approaches vary in Deer Management depending on woodland scale, location, and objectives.
This webinar will bring together three practitioners to share their experiences and insights:
- Jenny Greaves (Forester, South Scotland) – Do you need to do deer management? Monitoring methodologies, assessing impacts, and an overview of grants and associated costs.
- Rob Coope (Deer Manager, HPCLT) – Perspectives from a smaller woodland: assessing deer impacts, what it means to have no deer, and the opportunities and challenges of small-scale venison production.
- Jim Irvine (Manager, Knoydart) – Lessons from large-scale management: funding and sustaining a deer management team, open range deer management, and the role of stalking guests in generating income.
This session will offer practical examples from different contexts to help community woodland groups consider whether, and how, deer management could form part of their woodland plans.
