Basic Introduction of Green Skin Deer
Xinjiang currently has more than 100 deer farms with nearly 10000 domesticated deer, mainly produced in areas such as Zhaosu, Tekes, and Chabuchar. They are abundant and high-yielding, and are locally known as "Green Skin Deer". It is also produced in the grasslands of Yiwu, Barkol, and Mulei in the Hami region, commonly known as the "yellow eyed deer". The whole body of a red deer is precious, and its body, blood, tendons, tail, whip, heart, and other traditional medicinal materials are all used. The red deer is listed as a second-class protected animal in China due to its precious medicinal value
The red deer has a relatively large body size, with adult male deer measuring 130-140 centimeters in height, 130-150 centimeters in length, and weighing 240-330 kilograms. The female deer is 115-130 centimeters tall, 120-140 centimeters long, and weighs 160-200 kilograms. The Tianshan red deer has a robust body, a large and wide head, and strong limbs. Summer fur appears dark gray, with angular buttocks and white or light yellow spots. Winter hair is light gray brown, with long and thick dense Russian and beard hair on the neck, dark gray hair on the head, neck, and limbs, and light yellow eye circles. The fur is gray black or gray white in color. The Tianshan red deer has 7 to 8 antlers, with the main trunk of the antlers being inch sized eyebrow branches and the beak being thick and long. Some shovel shaped or palm shaped four branched antlers are commonly seen
Due to its gentle temperament, tolerance to rough feeding, strong adaptability and disease resistance, large and tender antler branches, high antler production, strong reproductive capacity, and good economic benefits, whether establishing a high-yield pure breeding population, improving Northeast deer with Tianshan deer, or even interbreeding with Northeast spotted deer, its hybrid vigor rate is very high. Continuing with progressive hybridization, followed by horizontal crossing between the second and third generations of hybridization, can ultimately result in the development of new types or varieties with high seed value
