MUNTJAC

[GARY 76]

Had them, (sorry seen them), all over the west midlands, Swindon and shropshire.

I have seen them in swindon. How far west into shropshire have they been sighted...

 

 

I know you seen them in swindon, i was there the week after you!!!!!!

 

On the Clee Hill in Shropshire.

Cheers for the replies..... would like to hear of any reports as i am trying to find out the areas they are now spreading into, espcially those unusual ones.... IMHO all the reports north of the Humber were deliberate releases as well as those in cambridgeshire (and therefore up that side of the A1) too. Interested is they have moved far into kent and south wales. cheers

who said theres muntjac in south wales,, Edited June 13, 2007 by elisderyn

the muntys can breed all year round mate , thnough there tends not to be as many fawns in winter, but i feel that is more down to "short term" evolution maybe...... i have seen babys in febuary and caught half grown ones in january....
