Hello Persian Fallow Deer Supporters!

We are happy to report that, a few weeks ago, our team released nine deer into the wild at the Nahal Soreq nature reserve near Jerusalem. Six females and three males (nine in total), all of whom were born in the Jerusalem Zoo, have been placed in their natural habitat to thrive amongst stable wild group already established there. The new individuals will supplement and enlarge that group.

The released deer were fitted with GPS collars so that our team can track their progress in real time.

Enjoy the beautiful photos of these lovely animals being released during one of the most beautiful and colorful Spring seasons Jerusalem has experienced for some time!

Thank you for your continued support of this meaningful conservation program.
