Deer Management Groups comprise groups of estates or other landholdings that share access to a discrete population or herd of deer that is managed as a common resource. DMGs have been set up over the last 30 years with encouragement from the Government agency, now Scottish Natural Heritage, with the responsibility for the conservation and control of all four species of deer presently found in Scotland.
