Fibropapillomatosis of Roe Deer (capreolus Capreolus) in Hungary

Ectoparasites on reintroduced roe deer Capreolus capreolus in Israel.

The ectoparasite fauna of reintroduced roe deer (Capreolus capreolus) was surveyed in a Mediterranean forest in Israel. Ectoparasites were collected from four female hand-reared deer during 2004 and 2005. Seasonality, predilection sites of infestation, and the apparent effect of the parasites are presented. This is the first study of roe deer parasites in the East Mediterranean. The ectoparasit...

Hand-rearing Roe deer Capreolus capreolus: practice and research potential

Four , Roe deer Capreolus capreolus were hand-reared and released into a 10 ha enclosed natural habitat. This paper describes the hand-rearing procedure, nutrition and development, which we compare with other documented cases. We illustrate the handling techniques that enabled us to maintain a close relationship with the hand-reared Roe deer in their adulthood and study them under semifree-rang...

Interrelationships between reproductive cycle, age, body weight and steroid hormones in roe deer females (Capreolus capreolus)

The aim of present studies was to examine the interrelationships between reproductive events, age, body mass and steroid hormones in roe deer females (Capreolus capreolus). For this purpose we compared seasonal changes in body mass, blood levels of progesterone and estradiol (1) in young (1 year) and adult (2-4 years old) does and (2) in pregnant and non-pregnant animals.
