Code of Welfare (204KB)

The code of welfare for deer came into force on 18 May 2007. It encourages all deer farmers (including those on game estates and safari parks) to adopt the highest standards of husbandry, care and handling. It sets out the general principles for the care of deer and is enhanced by the DeerQA On-Farm Programme that incorporates the recommendations of this code.
