THE DEER AT CHAMBORD

Chambord is a world reference for the knowledge of large wild ungulates thanks to a strategic scientific program. Chambord is the only place in France that combines a large enough area to preserve the natural behavior of large animals and a wall that prevents their entry and exit. This exceptional situation is complemented by a hunting and forestry service composed of forestry agents specialized in wildlife, experienced in paneling techniques, who have collected and preserved data on deer for decades. This combination of factors allows for consistent and long-term monitoring of large animal populations as well as comparisons with populations in open areas.
