air gun ant 1,666 Posted February 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2016 It is a stunning island I used to work in the woods there. I know a guy who shot a red stag there and when he got up to gralloch it found it had a tag in its ear. He checked with locals on Raasay , Rona and and Skye to see who had tagged it and he and found out eventually that it had been tagged as a calf on Rum as part of the red deer research and had swam off Rum onto Skye and then over onto Raasay. Look at a map that is an amazing journey for a stag. i was told that story while I was there! It quite a feat! I couldn't swim it and I used to swim for the county (when I was in school lol ) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
