    Abstract:
    59 newborn fallow deer calves were caught, marked, clinically investigated and weighed within 24 hours after parturition. Simultaneously a blood sample was taken from the jugular vein for hematological investigation. Mean birth weight was 4.84 +/- 0.4 kg. Mean number of erythrocytes was 8.91 +/- 0.77 T/l, the hemoglobin concentration was 8.28 +/- 0.77 mmol/l and the PCV was 40.9 +/- 3.0%. A temporary physiological erythropenia as described for neonates of different species during early postnatal development was not found in newborn fallow deer calves. On the other hand the fallow deer calves were born with a remarkable little number of leukocytes (4.5 +/- 1.34 G/l). Granulocytes are dominant among the white blood cells in newborn and adult fallow deer. Only during the 3rd and 4th month of life the number of lymphocytes raised temporarily.
