Farmed Captive Scottish red deer Hind _Snettisham Park Farm, Snettisham, King's Lynn, Norfolk, UK.
The Red Deer (Cervus elaphus) is one of the largest species of deer in the world. The species is the European Red Deer that inhabits most of Europe and the Caucasus Mountains region and Asia Minor west of the Caspian Sea. It also inhabits the Atlas Mountains region between Algeria and Tunisia in north-western Africa, being the only species of deer to inhabit Africa. Red Deer have been introduced to many other areas. In many parts of the world the meat (venison) from Red Deer is widely used as a food source. Red Deer are ruminants, characterized by an even number of toes, and a four-chambered stomach.
