The prettiest of all Australia's deer species, the Chital is also a quality hunting adversary.

 

Chital Deer Hunting

Often the last deer to be hunted by many east coast Australians because of the Chital's patchy and isolated distribution.

​

Chital deer have a life cycle that is less predictable than fallow, red and rusa deer. They can have antlers at any time of the year and tend to rut twice a year in southern Australia

​

No trophy room is complete without one of these incredibly beautiful deer and fortunately for those that don't enjoy hunting in extreme heat, we can offer hunting in the cooler months of the year without sacrificing antler quality.
