Threats

Road deaths are common (3), and predation of fawns by foxes is a serious cause of mortality (3). Due to the problems this species causes, particularly in highly sensitive conservation areas, this species is controlled by shooting (3), although due to the year-round reproduction there is no close-season in which shooting is restricted (3).
