[quote user="Frederick"]I read years ago that the large numbers of deer breeding out of control in the UK was down to the Berlin wall  being dismantled . Before that the  West Germans bought a lot of venison from the UK and herds were regularly culled  to supply them ..After the wall came down it was available  cheaper from East Europe and the UK trade dropped off .

Sounds like a good story except that all the venison I found while in Germany came from New Zealand

I think you will find now a lot of deer  farms have been set up in former East European countries .. They even do what they did in New  Zealand deer farms.  Move old stags from the farms  into huge enclosed areas then invite trophy hunters to come and shoot them .
