Fallow Deer
Discover the Fallow Deer: A Stunning Cervid of Spain’s Countryside.
The fallow deer is a striking cervid known for its distinctive shovel-shaped antlers and the white spots that adorn its coat. Found in various parts of Spain, this elegant species is a beautiful sight in the wild, particularly during the rutting season in October.
The rut is an incredible time to observe the fallow deer as the males compete for dominance and mates, emitting a characteristic sound known as the “ronca”. This unique vocalization, combined with the dramatic interactions between the stags, makes the rutting season one of the most impressive natural spectacles in Spain, offering visitors a rare glimpse into the fascinating behaviors of these majestic creatures.
