  Abstract:  

Extinct Fallow Deer (Dama dama L.) Pockets in Romania. The physical-geographical units hosting the 28 Fallow Deer population pockets were: the West Plain and the Romanian Plain, the Transylvanian, Moldavian, Getic and Someş plateaus, the West Hills, the Apuseni Mountains, the Moldavian Subcarpathians and the Danube Delta. Most pockets (71%) would disappear after 1960. The size of extinct pockets varies from a few deer (Miceşti, Dumbrava-Oraviţa, Huşi, Orşova, Iteşti-Gârleni and Coşava) to scores of individuals (Livada, Fersig, Coldău, Ciornuleasa, Poieni-Iaşi, Dumbrăveni-Sibiu, Comana, Râioasa and Cerveniţa) and hundreds even (Balc, Floreşti, Pătulele-Punghina and Valea Lungă).

Keywords: Fallow Deer pockets, rate of extinction, territorial repartition.
