Fallow deer  (Dama dama)

In the 11th century, the Normans introduced fallow deer to Britain; they are now patchily distributed throughout much of England and Wales, they also occur in some areas of Scotland and Northern Ireland (3). They are common throughout most of Europe, as they have escaped from deer parks throughout the continent (3).

This species inhabits mature deciduous and mixed woodland with dense undergrowth (3). It also occurs in marshes, meadows, and mature conifer plantations (3).
