Updated: Jul 27, 2023



Great Prince of the Forest is a title used to refer to a stag who serves as a protector of the Forest. Duties of the Great Prince including watching over the deer herds[1] and warning animals of danger.[2][3] The title of the Great Forest King might be connected to the Great Prince of The Forest, as Bambi, one of the Great Princes of The Forest, was once referred to as "the Great Forest King",[4] which is unusual since it is usually elk that are referred to as "kings" while deer are usually referred to as "princes".
