The British Deer Society has awarded a research grant to a collaborative red deer project between researchers from CEG and the James Hutton Institute. The funding was granted to Dr Justin Irvine from the James Hutton Institute in collaboration with Danielle Gauthier and Dr Philip Stephens here at CEG, to conduct a pilot study to detect trends in the spatial and temporal distribution of red deer in Scotland. As a charity, the BDS undertakes and funds research projects on cervid conservation and management.
