What we keep

  1. I

    Keepers and rangers on wages

    Every ground has its own people, paid all year, not only in season.

  2. II

    Woods replanted

    Native beech, oak and Scots pine, planted by the acre each winter.

  3. III

    Herds counted

    Deer and boar are counted each spring. The count sets the cull, never the guest list.

  4. IV

    Some animals never hunted

    Elephant, rhino, lion, leopard. Not for any fee.
