Feral Deer
Whilst it’s uncommon to see feral deer in urban areas, escaped fallow deer are an issue in the northern part of metropolitan South Australia. There are currently six species of deer that are feral in South Australia, with populations continuing to expand and invading new areas.
Under the Landscape South Australia Act 2019, landholders are responsible for managing feral deer on their properties, and it is illegal to move, sell, keep or release feral deer in South Australia.
