Comparison of the quality of red deer (Cervus elaphus L.) from different hunting grounds in North-Eastern Poland

Abstract The quality of red deer stags, hinds and calves living in the Forest Division of Mrągowo was determined based on carcass weight as well as the weight and type of antlers. The animals were also compared to red deer inhabiting north-eastern Poland and other regions of the country. It was found that in the red deer population analyzed in this study the average carcass weight of stags, hinds and calves was 121.77 kg, 81.30 kg and 47.96 kg respectively. Average antler weight reached 2.93 kg, and stags carrying antlers with sixteen and twelve points dominated in the population (accounting for 28% and 23% respectively). In comparison with red deer from other hunting grounds in NE Poland, the animals harvested in the Forest Division of Mrągowo were characterized by higher carcass weight and antler complexity.
