Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book concentrates on the red deer of Exmoor, not kept in parks but living in the wild, free to roam the vast, beautiful and often harsh landscape. Once nearly extinct, their resurgence is a heartening indication of how nature can recover when given space. The author, an expert on the subject, provides a thought-provoking account of the challenges they face in a landscape shaped by the march of human activities, drawing from centuries of local knowledge, modern ecology and deer conservation successes. The result places the red deer of Exmoor, and their populations elsewhere, into their environmental and cultural context. It's an insight into an animal so often seen as a symbol of freedom and wildness, and whose importance to the landscape and our appreciation of it is brought home so vividly by the author.
