Each work will look at the origin, liberation, spread and establishment, present status, location and how to hunt information, as well as listing all known trophies and their Douglas Score statistics, where available, as recorded by the New Zealand Deerstalkers' Association." Split into three sections looking at the Indonesian and New Zealand rusa, the Asian and New Zealand sambar and the North American and New Zealand whitetail or white-tailed deer.
