The red deer (
Cervus elaphus germanicus), the most magnificent animal of the French forests, was hunted by the kings of France. It represents THE hunting trophy. The rut period lasts one month starting mid-September. Our trophies are the result of many years of genetic selection among the best European populations. Some of the best French trophies originate from Laplanque. The red stag’s antlers are particularly massive and have many branches.
The Spanish red stag (Cervus elaphus hispanicus) is smaller and has smaller antlers than French red stags. It exists throughout Spain. We can hunt Spanish red stags in the Spanish Pyrenees, south of Andorra.
