Suttie, J.M. (1986) LH and testosterone from stags on a manipulated photoperiod
Australian Society of Endocrinology|Endocrine Society of Australia
Deer exposed to artificially alternating periods of 60 long and 60 short days are capable of growing three sets of antlers in one calendar year. This paper investigates the role of secretion of LH and testosterone in determining these cycles

Suttie, J.M. (1984) LH and testosterone pulsatility and antler development in red deer stags.
The results described in this paper are consistent with the hypothesis that higher testosterone levels due to increased pulsatility of LH are required for predicle growth than are required for antler growth and that high levels of testosterone are required for antler cleaning

Tremain-Boon, S. (2001) Liver trace elements in farmed and feral deer.
NZVA Deer Branch Conf. Proceedings
There is a belief that the variation in the feral deer diet results in a better trace element status than farmed deer. This trial examines this belief.
