Wo kann man Chinesisches Wasserreh jagen?
The Chinese water deer, known for its small size, reddish-brown coat, and distinctive tusks, is a fascinating species that offers a unique hunting opportunity. Originally native to China and Korea, this unusual deer has established strong populations in the wetlands and agricultural landscapes of Great Britain, where it thrives. In fact, England is currently the only place in the world where you can enjoy a legal hunt after a free-ranging Chinese water deer. Within England, Bedfordshire, Norfolk, and Cambridgeshire, is the premier destination for hunting CWD, as the species is known among local hunters. These areas offer ideal habitats of marshlands, riverbanks, and open fields where the deer can flourish. With no antlers to evaluate, Chinese water deer hunts focus on the quality of their tusks, making them an intriguing and distinctive addition to any hunter’s trophy collection.
Preisverteilung
Hunting Chinese water deer in Great Britain is more affordable than you would think. Day rates for guided hunts typically range from £250 to £500, and additional trophy fees may be charged depending on the size and quality of the tusks. Trophy fees often start at £300 and can exceed £1,000 for exceptional specimens. Additional fees may be charged for things like gun rental and insurance, and packages that include meals and room will be naturally priced higher. A great value for a beginner are so-called “first time stalker” packages, which include a theoretical lesson on deer and deer stalking and a shooting session, but are of course priced above the regular outing.

11 Aug. 2023 Deer Stalking in Great Britain: What You Need to KnowWhen to hunt Chinese Water Deer?
The hunting season for Chinese water deer in England runs from November 1 to March 31. What time within the season is better is open for debate. Some argue that the start of the season is better, as the deer’s coat thickens and their tusks are fully developed, making it the prime period for harvesting quality trophies. Cooler weather and shorter vegetation in the winter months also improve visibility and stalking conditions. On the other hand, in February and March the partridge and pheasant shooting season is closed, which means less disturbance for deer and more territories available, as gamekeepers are less concerned about deer stalkers harassing their birds. Longer days also mean the diurnal creature would be more likely to feed in the legal shooting light.

Hunting Chinese water deer is typically conducted through spot-and-stalk or still hunting, as these deer are most active in open fields, wetlands, and along hedgerows. Hunters use binoculars to scan the landscape for the small and often well-camouflaged animals, followed by a careful approach to get within range. A bit of crawling on the belly might be necessary! Due to their skittish nature and excellent eyesight, Chinese water deer hunting takes patience and precision. Shots are often taken at moderate distances, but a Chinese Water Deer is a small target, so good shooting skills are required. Most British guides use rifles equipped with sound moderators, to avoid disturbing the residents in densely populated rural areas; if you’ve never shot such a rifle, it’s best to arrange a short shooting session before the hunt, to get familiar with it.
