More About the Peré David Deer
Adult Pere David Deer stand roughly 4½ to 5½ feet at the shoulder and can weigh between 300 to 500 pounds, with mature stags boasting antlers that can span up to 3 feet when fully developed. Their tawny coats, distinctive white rump patch, and graceful carriage make them a striking trophy.
Native originally to the marshes of central China, Peré David Deer were saved from extinction by a handful of European private herds in the late 19th century. Today, managed populations like ours at Stone Creek Ranch flourish in carefully maintained habitats that mimic their riverine and wetland origins.
These deer are primarily grazers, favoring grasses, aquatic plants, and browse. Surprisingly agile for their size, they move swiftly through heavy cover and can reach speeds up to 30 mph when alarmed.
Hunting Peré David Deer is not only a chance at a prized mount but also a way to support ethical wildlife management and species conservation. Our guided hunts ensure a fair chase, respect for the animal, and continued preservation of this remarkable species for generations to come.
