Teeth as indicators of age with special reference to Red deer (Cervus elaphus) of known age from Rhum

Abstract: An experiment in land management and Red deer population control was begun by the Nature Conservancy on the Isle of Rhum, a National Nature Reserve off the west coast of Scotland, in 1957. To assess the results fully it has become necessary to determine the most suitable ageing method which can be applied to the material, which has accumulated since from the annual deer culls and natural deaths. Using mandibles only from individuals, whose age was certainly known by marking at birth, and which, in most cases w… Show more

“…However, extreme precision in age determination was often more of an academic than a practical interest. Many studies were conducted to summarize wear patterns of known-age animals and attempted to correlate the trends to unknown-age animals [120]. Others did not support the theory and believed that by using wear patterns, age determination was not reliable [121].…”

“…Instead, cementum layers were used to determine the ages of coyotes and other species [122,123]. However, Lowe felt that similar to growth rings in trees, interpreting or counting cementum layers was not convincing [120]. It was influenced greatly by environmental factors.…”
