An unmistakable icon of the Scottish highlands, the Red Deer Stag has impressive branched antlers and dark russet-brown fur. Crafted with realism in mind, our Red Deer Stag soft toy has wonderful life-like features – a thoughtful woodland toy for anyone who loves these majestic animals.
The most characteristic feature of the Red Stag is their impressive antlers. These can measure up to 1 metre and weigh as much as 15kg. They shed their antlers once a year, meaning they’ll fall off and new ones will grow back. Their new antlers are covered in soft, furry skin called velvet, which is rubbed off when the growth is complete. The antlers usually grow back the same size and shape. Stags with the biggest antlers are in luck because they’re the ones that the females find attractive. To compete for females, stags will roar, walk parallel to each other, and fight.
The Red Deer Stag is Scotland’s largest deer.
Woodlands.
Red Deer Stag make lots of noises like roaring, barking and even mooing.
“I joined the team in September of 2021 as a Farm Hand. This was my first proper job and the experience was very insightful as working with animals there is never a dull moment. I have always loved animals and have had many different animals growing up such as guinea pigs, rabbits, dogs and horses so I knew the animal industry was a career I would like to be involved in. Since joining Kew Little Pigs Farm I have had the opportunity to care for the animals and share my knowledge with all the customers that have visited the farm. I was promoted to Head Farm Hand in January 2023.
I look forward to my journey here at Kew Little Pigs Farm and hope to see you on the farm soon!”
