This is the skull and antlers of a young stag. Ex Collection of Dublin University. This species of deer is often and erroneously described as an Irish Elk, whereas in fact its nearest relative is the Fallow Deer. This animal was not just particular to Ireland-remains have been found in Japan and China, westward through Asia and Europe. However, most have been found in Ireland, which the deer reached over a land bridge that existed between Cumberland and Ireland via the Isle of Man. It is thought that this species became extinct in Ireland about 10,750-10,250 years ago (about 2,500 years before man first came to Ireland). Giant Deer remains are found in the marls below the peat bogs. The Giant Deer were also 2m tall at the shoulder, and could weigh up to 500kg. Like most living deer, the male and female Giant Irish Deer would have lived in separate herds for much of the year, congregating only for the autumn rut. Large antlers were used for display to both intimidate rivals and impress females, and were also used in combat. The male deer often entered the winter undernourished and in poor condition, sheltering in such narrow steep-sided valleys as that at Ballybetagh, Co Dublin. Here several males died each year on the shores of a shallow lake where their bones would have been trampled by other deer and gnawed by animals such as the Arctic Fox before becoming buried in the lake muds. At Ballybetagh the remains of at least 120 individuals have been discovered, all of them males. The abundance of Giant Deer in Ireland compared with the rest of Europe suggests that condition there were ideal. The abundance also reflects the fact that they were buried in sediments beneath a layer of peat which lead to their discovery as the turf was collected for fuel. Giant Deer remains have also been found in a number of Irish caves, along with bones of Reindeer, Woolly Mammouth, Hyaena and other members of the Ice Age fauna. The final extinction of the Giant Irish Deer came about 10,600 years ago when a cold phase of climate lasting over 400 years caused changes in the vegetation and it became increasingly difficult for the deer to obtain sufficient food to build their large bodies, grow antlers which were shed annually, and build up fat reserves sufficient to survive the winter. The Giant Deer has been known from remains found in Irish bogs since the 16th century. It was first mentioned in print in 1596 when a skull with antlers was presented to Hatfield House in England and recorded in the State papers. The first scientific description was by Thomas Molyneux in 1697, but it was 1813 before the animal was scientifically named by Blumenbach. It is now known as Megaloceros giganteus blumenbach. The National Museum of Ireland has almost 200 specimens of skulls and antlers in its collection.
