Lowland Deer Network Scotland

The Lowland Deer Network Scotland (LDNS) was launched at a conference in Cardrona, Peebles on 14 November 2011. The aim of LDNS is to provide additional structure to deer management in lowland and peri-urban areas.

LDNS is a partnership being taken forward by ADMG in conjunction with SNH, Forestry Commission Scotland/Forest Enterprise Scotland, the Scottish Gamekeepers Association, British Deer Society and others.
