group of hinds with calves</figcaption></figure> <p>Mature red deer (<i>C. elaphus</i>) usually stay in single-sex groups for most of the year. During the mating season, called the <a href="/wiki/Rut_(mammalian_reproduction)" title="Rut (mammalian reproduction)">rut</a>, mature stags compete for the attentions of the hinds and will then try to defend the hinds they attract. Rival stags challenge opponents by belling and walking in parallel. This allows combatants to assess each other's antlers, body size and fighting prowess. If neither stag backs down, a clash of antlers can occur, and stags sometimes sustain serious injuries.<sup id="cite_ref-World_16-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-World-16"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>16<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Red deer are among the <a href="/wiki/List_of_mammals_displaying_homosexual_behavior" title="List of mammals displaying homosexual behavior">mammals exhibiting homosexual behavior</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-Biological_Exuberance:_Hoofed_Mammal,_Deer_39-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Biological_Exuberance:_Hoofed_Mammal,_Deer-39"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>39<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Dominant stags <a href="/wiki/Self-anointing_in_animals#Ungulates" title="Self-anointing in animals">urinate on themselves</a><sup id="cite_ref-40" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-40"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>40<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> and follow groups of hinds during the rut, from August into early winter.

Stags two to four years old rarely hold harems and spend most of the rut on the periphery of larger harems, as do stags over 11 years old. Young and old stags that do acquire a harem hold it later in the breeding season than those stags in their prime. Harem-holding stags rarely feed and lose up to 20% of their body weight. Stags that enter the rut in poor condition are less likely to make it through to the peak conception period.<sup id="cite_ref-World_16-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-World-16"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>16<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><span><audio id="mwe_player_1" controls="" preload="none" data-mw-tmh="" class="mw-file-element" width="220" style="width:220px;" data-durationhint="48" data-mwtitle="Red_Deer_(Cervus_elaphus)_(W1CDR0001424_BD3).ogg" data-mwprovider="wikimediacommons" resource="/wiki/File:Red_Deer_(Cervus_elaphus)_(W1CDR0001424_BD3).ogg"><source src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/transcoded/9/9b/Red_Deer_%28Cervus_elaphus%29_%28W1CDR0001424_BD3%29.ogg/Red_Deer_%28Cervus_elaphus%29_%28W1CDR0001424_BD3%29.ogg.mp3" type="audio/mpeg" data-transcodekey="mp3" data-width="0" data-height="0" /><source src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/9b/Red_Deer_%28Cervus_elaphus%29_%28W1CDR0001424_BD3%29.ogg" type="audio/ogg; codecs="vorbis"" data-width="0" data-height="0" /></audio></span><figcaption>Two males roaring</figcaption></figure> <p>Male European red deer have a distinctive <a href="/wiki/Roar" title="Roar">roar</a> during the rut,<sup id="cite_ref-42" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-42"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>42<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> which is an adaptation to forested environments, in contrast to male American elk stags which "bugle" during the rut in adaptation to open environments.
