ACTIONS
BY 2027
•
Work in partnership with deer management groups to
produce strategic land use plans which explore a wide range
of income streams (including from natural capital), reduce habitat
impacts and deliver a wide range of public and private benefits.
•
Explore new models of public / private partnership for
maintaining stalker employment in key areas of the National
Park to achieve overall deer policy objectives.
•
Explore the use of measures of deer and herbivore occupancy
across the National Park and investigate how those measures
might be used to improve the management of herbivores and,
specifically, reduce deer impacts on restoration targets.
