Back from a rewarding few days visiting colleagues from Rum Deer Research on Rum itself. Spectacular scenery, long walks over the hills, excellent food & company & much science discussed. And some great Natural History to follow 1/n
Today we are excited to host a symposium to mark 50 years of Rum Deer Research
The Isle of Rum is a National Nature Reserve and we are grateful to Former NatureScot account for allowing us to conduct the study

I’ll post a DOI when we have one.

We deserve to be heard
