摘要：

This study investigated the correlation between mandibular length versus the age and body mass of European roe deer. Mandibular length was measured in 7560 roe deer (3888 females and 3672 fawns younger than 1 year) that were hunter-harvested in the Czech Republic in 2007-2012. The body mass and age of every animal were determined. Average mandibular length was determined at less than 130 mm in fawns and more than 153 mm in adult females. The greatest increase in mandibular length and body mass of 24.8 mm and 5.3 kg, respectively, was observed in animals aged up to 4 years. In older roe deer, mandibular length increased at a slower rate and remained fairly constant. Mandibular length increased with body mass, and the cross-correlation coefficient was determined at 0.8255. The results of this study indicate that mandibular length is a useful metric for describing the quality of roe deer populations and individuals.
