The evolution of the Fallow Deer populations colonised in the Buzău Subcarpathians (Romania). The species was introduced in the Deduleşti Hunting Fond in 1968. The enclosure (3 ha) was created in the Valea Rea Forest (340 m alt.) on the northern slope of the Nişcăveni Hill (at 3 km south of Buda Village). In 1976, the population grew to 59 specimens and reached 88 heads in 1978, the highest figure registered in the Râmnicu Sărat Subcarpathian area. However, the effective studied was of 80-82 individuals over the 1987-1992 interval. From the 82 individuals in 1992 (22 males and 60 females), numbers kept steadily decreasing to only 16 in 2006, a situation caused by increased poaching and migration of some Fallow Deer to neighbouring grounds (since 2003 they live on the grounds of the Oreavu Hunting Fond) and after forest and / or agricultural areas were returned to their former owners the movement of the species became more intense. The first Fallow Deer specimens were harvested in 1973 (2 males). In 1978, the Dama dama population was formed of several groups of 10-15 (20) individuals each. Today, only 2-3 groups of 4-5 specimens each have been left. A number of 6 individuals (2 males and 4 females) were captured at Hagiu east of Buda (where an enclosure was created to catch the animals) and sent (in 1981) to colonise Valea Largă Forest on the territory of Vipereşti Commune. In 1986, the effective numbered 17 individuals, but the sex ratio was disproportionate (11 males and 6 females). Poaching and presumably migration are to blame for the disappearance of this small nucleus in 1989.
