Lloyd90 509 Posted February 18, 2016 Report Share Posted February 18, 2016 The Muntjac is a more than welcome addition to South Wales. It would be nice for the numbers to catch up with the likes of the South West..... There's cracking forestry and mountains all over the place , Neath, Merthyr, Port Talbot, Measteg , they'd be a lovely addition but can't see it happening from their spread for many many years 1 Quote Link to post
Merlin21 143 Posted February 18, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2016 I suppose they'll be heard before they're seen .. but like you say plenty of good ground for them to fit in and hide away .. live in hope i suppose ... Quote Link to post

Hywel 53 Posted April 3, 2016 Report Share Posted April 3, 2016 Plenty of ground but will be dogged and shoot like mad in the valleys That would be my concern. If we were to have any decent numbers in the future, they have to be given opportunity to breed. I think if they were assisted in their distribution for conservation purposes, that would be a start...... Quote Link to post

Until they get to a number where they don't get completely wiped out. Same applies to rabbits, hares, other types of deer etc..... Quote Link to post
