The red deer (Cervus elaphus) and sika deer (C. nippon) are two important and endangered herbivores in northeast China. It is unclear whether potential dietary competition exists between them when they are sympatric in winter. We used micro-histological analysis of faecal samples to determine diet composition and dietary overlap of the red deer and sika deer in northeast China. We found that red deer had a more diverse diet than sika deer, and consumed more shrubs throughout the winter. Euonymus spp. was the most stable and principal food item for both red and sika deers in winter, while the proportions of the three other major food species (Acer spp., Abies spp. and Pinus spp.) were significantly different between the deer species as well as between different winter periods. The proportions of coniferous browse of sika deer increased significantly from early to late winter (20.9 vs 45.4%), while for red deer they remained stable (18.3 vs 23.7%). Crude protein in the red and sika deer's diet was over 7.5% of dry matter in whole winter. Red and sika deer take different strategies to meet their requirements for crude protein. Red deer consumed in winter consistently more shrubs to obtain crude protein and to minimize the intake of tannins, whereas sika deer increased coniferous browse consumption in late winter to meet the crude protein requirement regardless of higher intake of tannin. Our results indicate a high degree of dietary overlap between red and sika deers (range 0.88-0.95), and suggest its further increase in late winter.

Celem niniejszej pracy jest ocena aktywności żerowej jelenia europejskiego na łąkach śródleśnych poddanych renowacji z wykorzystaniem różnych metod. Badania przeprowadzone na obiektach doświadczalnych wykazały, że zdecydowana większość aktywności żerowej zwierząt miała miejsce na powierzchniach odnowionych przy pomocy metody pełnej uprawy połączonej z wysiewem specjalistycznych mieszanek nasiennych. Stosunkowo niewielki efekt dało zastosowanie metody podsiewu. Żerowa-nie na obiektach kontrolnych miało charakter incydentalny, co pozwala wnioskować, że ruń tych powierzchni łąk nie spełniała wymagań pokarmowych jelenia europejskiego.

Aim of this study is evaluation of red deer foraging activity on renovated mid-forest meadows using different methods. Research, carried out on experimental sites, showed, that most of grazing activity of animals falls on areas renovated by full tillage method combined with sowing of specialised seed mixtures. Relative low effect occurs by using of oversowing method. Foraging activity on control areas was very low, this allow to conclude that sward of this mid-forest meadows didn’t fulfil nutritional needs of red deer.
