Mating Season in Red Deer Land-1 (2007)

Begins with a lone roaring red stag on a hill side with a small herd of fallow deer nearby. Later the scene moves to a few hundred meters away, where another mature stag red deer is gathered with a large herd of hinds in various stages of estrus. Detecting this, the stage chases and seems to roar in protest when the not yet ready hinds move away from him. (Jægersborg Dyrehave, Denmark - 16 Sept. 2007)

This is in a large, enclosed, old forested area, known as "Dyrehaven" north of Copenhagen, Denmark.

That red stag is giant.did you ever get him?

[hunterdp]

I only hunt with a camera, and in this park there is no hunting allowed. But it's a great place to observe the 3 species of deer that live there.

What a beautiful stag (at 2:16), those antlers are breathtaking. I would give anything to see such a majestic creature in the wild!

You are very lucky to live where you are :)

why didnt you shoot it

@CandyCrayon91 I can understand how you feel, but there are hunters out there that respect the animal that dies to feed their family. Hunters spend their lives alongside these animals and know them, a true hunter should be able to watch these animals without the overwhelming desire to kill them. These animals are their lives and hunters that don't respect that are not true hunters.

I can understand the thrill of the hunt, but I can also appreciate these amazing animals for what they are.

You're insane if you enjoy killing down such gorgeous animals. Try to enjoy nature -without- a gun slung over your back.
