Some of the ancient Turks have accepted the deer as holly and some enjoyed
hunting them. But legends and folk songs are full of tragic stories of deer
hunters. That is why deer hunting is always considered dangerous by the
Turks. Deer hunting is harder than hunting other animals. It needs force power,
patience and good skills in shooting. The deer acts sometimes like a human
being and surprises the hunters. Since the deer runs fast, usually it is
preferred to lay an ambush near a water side. The hunters, who know the time
when a deer visits the water side, hunt by a single shot. The deer's do not
wonder around single. They go to the water side in groups. This is an
advantage for the hunter. But it is always dramatic that a mother deer is
hunted near its young. Today it is almost impossible for a hunter to hunt in
such a way.
There are many programmers to protect the deer's all around the world. These
kinds of protection programmers help the development of hunting and hunting
tourism.
For example, there were few thousands of deer's when the continent America
was discovered, but with the help of these programmers, although about 12
millions of them are hunted each year, there are still millions of them.
This shows that; hunting tourism has not lessen the number of deer's but
infect has helped them to increase. In Turkey, with the help of protection
programmers, the number of deer's which were 7 in Antalya-Düzlerçamı Forest
has risen up to 700. In Ankara-Beypazarı, the number of deer's which are
under a protection programmed and are forbidden to hunt, have risen up in
number and they harm the fields
