Bark Stripping by Red Deer: the Possible Effect of Recreational Use of the Landscape

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

We studied the effect of recreational use of the landscape on the intensity of red deer bark damage to spruce forest stands. We determined the damage in two recreationally attractive areas: Beskydy Mountains (Beskydy) and Ore Mountains (Ore). In total we studied 31 forest stands (Beskydy: 17, Ore: 14) with 1379 trees. The aim was to find out whether the tourism can reduce the intensity of deer damage in forest stands located in tourist attractive areas. Three scenarios have been considered: 1) the long term disturbances by tourists lead to lower density of deer and lower damage, 2) the disturbances by tourists lead only to avoiding the most disturbed places by deer. The local population of deer concentrate in less disturbed places and cause here extensive damage and 3) disturbance of deer results in longer presence of deer in dense spruce stands. Deer consume higher proportion of spruce bark and the extent of the damage per one deer is higher. The results proved the validity of the scenario 1. It can be concluded that the deer adapted to intense tourist pressure by adjusting its spatial behaviour and focuses its occurrence on areas where it is not so stressed.
