Estonia | 5 Krooni (Pin)

Roe deer. They have been living on Estonian lands for at least 10,000 years. Adult roe deer weigh up to 30 kg, with fawns weighing 20 kg. They are subject to very high natural mortality and predation pressure. As a result of the last cold winters, over half of the deer population has perished. To survive the winter, the availability of water-rich shrub plants is important. According to the count for 2015, the population is officially 31,000 roe deer. The species is highly territorial.
