The turn of the season towards autumn is the period when deer are in the height of their mating season and it is easy to hear their bellowing echoing from sunset onwards. What is bellowing? It is the mating call emitted by male deer in order to demonstrate their strength and win over the female harem. After fighting and conquering the herds of females, the males communicate their position and rank to their rivals. The louder the bellow, the more the deer demonstrates its power and tells other males to stay away.
Where to hear the bellowing of the deer
For those who love the natural world, the Monti Simbruini Regional Nature Park, the Duchessa Reserve, the Monti Lucretili Regional Nature Park, the Monti Navegna e Cervia Regional Nature Reserve, and the Gran Sasso and Monti della Laga National Park offer the opportunity to hear this wonderful love song through group events and guided excursions that make the experience unique and exciting!
