Excerpt from Deer Breeding for Fine Heads: With Descriptions of Many Varieties and Cross-Breeds As a rule, the herds of deer in parks are too often left to breed at haphazard, and in many parks there are herds of stunted fallow deer as small as goats and carrying miserable heads. Even where fallow deer are better looked after. It is usual to breed to a standard merely for venison, and so long as a buck is fat, no attention is paid to his colour or head, and a herd usually consists of animals of all colours and shapes.

Who desire to have their deer as well tended and well bred as prize poultry or prize dogs. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
