Deer district
A red deer district is a defined area in which red deer may occur as standing game . In the German federal states, the permitted habitat of red deer can be officially determined on the basis of the hunting laws . Outside of these areas (deer-free area) there is a sometimes strict shooting requirement. Red deer districts or areas, management districts or management areas for hoofed game , as they are called in the various federal states, are a regulation that is unique in Europe.
Red deer districts have existed since the 1950s. There is a consistent shooting requirement for red deer outside of these districts in the western and southern federal states of North Rhine-Westphalia, Hesse, Rhineland-Palatinate, Saarland, Baden-Württemberg, Bavaria, Hesse and Thuringia. In the other countries in the north and east of Germany, red deer can in principle live anywhere.
