Ok Johan - a case of lost in translation I think.

My point is that if a deer were so inclined it could walk from Scotland to London, albeit across a few roads. Or put another way - I live in the southeast close to London. But the area I hunt is 5,500 acres without fences and there is nothing stopping deer wandering off that ground for similar distances for 360 degrees around. Most lowland (woodland) deer will never wander that far in their lifetimes, even though they can.

The presence of people is not really relevant for the presence of roe, muntjac, red and fallow deer here, as populations are expanding rapidly throughout the country. In fact I have little doubt that the wildlife density is higher here than in Sweden and most all other place in Europe. Trophy quality is also increasing, especially for roe and muntjac. In case anyone is in any doubt, these are NOT captive bred park animals (in the sense that I understand the word park in the context of deer).
