Meetings of the Ashdown Area Deer Group
The Ashdown Area Deer Group was
set up in 2006 to provide a forum on deer in the area and with the
objectives of reducing the number of deer Road Traffic Collisions
(RTCs) and ensuring the welfare of a healthy, local deer population.
It includes representatives from the Deer Initiative, East Sussex County Council, the RSPCA, the British Deer Society, Sussex Police, and local land-owners or managers such as the Ministry of Defence and the Conservators. The immediate reason for the Group's formation is the rise in deer RTCs, at least 330 in 2006. Most casualties are fallow deer, with the occasional roe and muntjac.
