DO YOU FARM OR KEEP ANY DEER?

If you farm or keep any deer, the Department of Natural Resources and Environment Tasmania (Game Services Tas. [GST]) is currently inspecting all deer farms to determine whether they meet the requirements of the new regulations, which came into effect from 1 July 2022.

Anyone keeping any deer, even if only one deer, must now have a licence.

GST wants to hear from all deer farmers to work with them to become compliant with the new regulations.

Wildlife Management Officers will work with deer farmers to understand and implement the new regulations within a reasonable time period.

If you own any deer, please contact GST on 1300 292 292, or for more information, CLICK HERE to visit the website.
