Hallo zusammen,
Wir hatten vor Kurzem ein fantastisches Erlebnis beim Wandern im Nuuksio-Nationalpark im September.
Meine Verlobte stieß zufällig auf ein großes, frisches Rentiergeweih, das einfach auf dem Boden lag!
Sie sind völlig intakt und in einem hervorragenden Zustand. Ich bin neugierig, wie selten es ist, so etwas in freier Wildbahn zu finden, besonders so nahe an Helsinki?
Soweit ich weiß, sind Rentiere im Norden Lapplands häufiger anzutreffen, daher scheint dies ziemlich ungewöhnlich zu sein.
Dank im Voraus!

Hmm. Are you aware that we have deers and mooses in Southern FI.
Espoo is not exactly reindeer herding area.
It would be rare indeed to find reindeer antlers in nuuksio.
They are not from reindeer but deer.
Whitetail deer antlers are what I’d guess these to be. Plenty of whitetail deer in the southern parts of Finland, reindeer are very, very rare this far south, as the regions where reindeer are herded are bordered with fences.
That is a deer, give them to me. I love them!
[White tailed deer are very common in nuuksio. They’ve been imported here because… hunting.](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/White-tailed_deer)
[I’d say the antlers match.](https://www.riistainfo.fi/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/17-_dsg9355.jpg)
There’s a lot of deer antlers lying around, but these look especially good.
Am Sámi and grew up around reindeers. These aren’t reindeer antlers, and as others have said, are likely whitetail deer antlers – but are definitely not reindeer antlers.
You have most likely found antlers of about 2.5 to 3.5 years old [whitetail deer](https://www.riistainfo.fi/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/17-_dsg9355.jpg).
… There are no wild reindeers at Southern Finland. Those are deer antlers. Reindeers have way more larger antlers than that. There is Reindeer Park at Nuuksio, but again; They aren’t wild and those are not big enough to be reindeer antlers.
Those are white tail deer

”The white-tailed deer arrived in Finland in 1934, when Finns from North America wanted to donate a new game animal to Finland and loaded seven young white-tailed deer, three males and four females, onto the ship.”

Idk, I’ve found a pair last (or the previous) winter in Porkkala. Made a keyring out of it.
Reindeer antlers from Nuuksio. I say that it’s about 1:1 000 000 000 chance
As a hunter, that’s a pair of whitetail antlers. Cool find nonetheless!
Not a reindeer, deer.
*Take only memories, leave only footprints.*
Taking stuff other than berries and mushroom from a National Park is not ok.
Those look like whitetail deer antlers to me.
I am a reindeer herder, those are deer horns and not reindeer horns
