The #RoeDeer rut (mating season) occurs earlier than other larger #deer species & runs around mid-July to mid-August. Does (females) delay implantation to avoid young being born during winter & will give birth from late April to June. 📷 Lee Knight #WildlifeWednesday #NewForest

🐴 🐎 Let's hear it for the boys! #NewForest stallions will be in the areas listed from 9 May for six weeks. Please keep your distance as they woo their mares as behavior throughout the herd can be unpredictable and erratic. hlsnewforest.org.uk @RealNewForest @NFVerderers

We are a dog's paradise here in the New Forest, with over 140 miles of safe off-road forest tracks, lots of coast to explore and many sights and smells for them to enjoy, there is no better place for a dog walk 🌲🐶 Always be a responsible dog walker. ow.ly/1XjZ50GA9I5

Thank you New Forest. You are as lovely, wildlife-rich and welcoming with fab food and drink as ever. For those who claim there’s no beauty, biodiversity or economic sustainability in our national parks, I say you need to spend some time in the awesome @NewForestNPA

At this time of year drivers should watch out for wild #deer on #NewForest roads at night or early in the morning & be wary of not just one deer crossing the road, it’s best to stop & wait as they often travel in groups. Find out more: forestryengland.uk/article/d… #Add3Minutes
