We are happy to have our first member from Mexico. Welcome!
Our IDUBA member and likely the most active animal reproduction company in the area of deer, mouflon and other game especies, Animal Reproduction Centre (led by Dr. Jaroslav Pokoradi), sent us the information regarding the workshop that they are organizing this 15th of September in cooperation with the University of Veterinary Medicine and Pharmacy in Košice, and the Ruminant Clinic also in Košice (Slovakia). It is also a part of this organization the Association of Veterinary Doctors of the Slovak Republic.
The interest of the meeting for those breeding wild species goes beyond the mouflon (the same species as the sheep), as it can be also useful for those working in deer. However, the practices will be done in sheep, which is more easy to access, transport, etc. than deer. The venue will take part in the University of Veterinary Medicine and Pharmacy in Košice and the Ruminant Clinic (address: Komenského 68/73, 041 81 Košice).
The dates are 15.9.2023 – 17.9.2023. The talks will be in English and, in general, the communication language will be both Slovak and English. In principle, the maximum number of participants allowed is 10, so rush to register. However, if the number is higher, the organizers will fit the material for the training (as the listening seats for talks are not a problem). The workshop price is 1250 € and this includes: workshop lecturers, food, refreshments, certificate, LAI manual.
In order to register, the participants should write to Dr. Jaroslav Pokoradi at jaroslav.pokoradi@gmail.com and make the payment by 31st of July 2023 at the bank account of Animal Reproduction Centre. The bank details can be obtained in the e-mail mentioned.
The program is as follows:
15.9.2023 arrival, accommodation, working dinner at 7 pm

New sponsor of IDUBA -“BILAGRO”
country: Russia
web: https://bilagro.com/
Type of business: deer farm
An article published in the reputed scientific journal Scientific Reports by the group of IDUBA president professor Landete-Castillejos, and led by the researcher Louis Chonco and neurologist doctor Tomás Segura from the University Hospital of Albacete (Spain), shows that the extract of deer velvet antler is an anti-cancer as powerful as the chemotherapy used to treat a brain cancer known as glioblastoma.
This study, designed and led by doctor Chonco, shows that the velvet antler extract from the tip, but not from the middle parts of the antler, reduced the proliferation of two cell lines of glioblastoma by 38% and the colony formation by 84% (which could be considered as a form of metastasis ability), in addition to inhibit cell migration by 39% and produce other changes, but had no significant effect in healthy cells. The next step, as Drs. Chonco, Segura and Landete-Castillejos point, is to assess whether the extract, ingested or injected, can reduce glioblastomas in mice models. “This is particularly difficult because the nervous system is protected by the Blood-Brain Barrier, which filters many pharmaceutical drugs and other molecules”, they say.
This research work started after a talk on the peculiarities of antlers that was given by Professor Landete-Castillejos in the Research Departament of the University Hospital Complex of Albacete (CHUA) in 2019, where he pointed that the antler is a unique structure which grows faster than cancer: “from 1 to 4 cm/day in length, and it creates more than 20 cm2 of skin per day in the tip, the growing part”.
Doctor Louis Chonco, who in that moment worked in studies on glioblastoma with doctor Segura, suggested to carry out a test with his cell cultures. That sample were some pills of velvet antler that Dr. Landete-Castillejos had, which are sold in Internet as nutrateutic (food which has effects on health). Already in that preliminary test, the velvet extract showed to produce a mortality in a glioblastoma cell line, similar to that of Temozolomide (TMZ), “the only chemotherapy that can extend the life of the patients of this aggressive type of cancer”.
The study of the UCLM-CHUA is the first of non-asiatic research groups, and on the second type of cancer, in which velvet antler shows activity. “Both in glioblastoma as in prostate cancer, the extract produces a mortality in cell lines of both types of cancer, but produces no harm in healthy cell lines” they say, and they told that it was recently published an important paper in the journal Science, which indicated that such fast growth is achieved in the antler due to the expression of proto-oncogenes (similar to the genes producing cancer), and that the deer, in order to protect itself, developed genes suppressor of tumours.
According to a review article of professor Landete-Castillejos, probably the anti-cancer activity of the deer velvet antler extract is universal (it would affect most types of tumours), or at least, very wide.
The only studies published so far by Chinese-Koreans, showed anti-cancer effects of velvet extract in cell lines of prostate cancer, but also in mice models of xenografts. This is precisely the next step of the researchers Chonco, Landete-Castillejos and Segura in the coming months if they get funding to continue the study, as they said. One potential option is to set up a crowdfunding initiative. Within the research plans of Dr. Chonco, Landete-Castillejos and Segura, is not only to examine the mechanisms by which the deer velvet extract produces such effects in glioblastoma, but also if it is an anti-cancer compound of wide actions against breast, skin and colon cancers.
In addition of the possibility of being able to use velvet antler pills already for sale, these studies may show the path to find pharmaceutical drugs which are both powerful against cancer, but without the toxic effects of chemotherapy.

This year we will make a particular effort to show the opportunities for producing and selling deer products to China and the Asian market. The event will bring together the leading deer breeders, scientists, veterinarians, hunters, deer farm managers, fencing and infrastructure companies, nutrition producers of best feeds for excellent trophies, exporters-importers of antlers, processing companies of venison and other types of meat, companies for improving genetics. All of them will come for THIS GREAT DEER EVENT OF THE YEAR from Europe, Russia, China, New Zealand and other countries . Do not miss your chance to meet professionals and exchange experience!!! More info: https://iduba.info/events/
Mr. Jimmy Sui visited the research group and deer farm of the president of IDUBA, prof. Landete-Castillejos. Mr. Sui gave a talk about co-products of deer (velvet antler, deer placenta, blood, etc.) to scientists and Spanish businessman and showed the great potential that this line of business may have not just for Spain, but also for whole world considering the large demand from China and other Asian countries. The news came out in the regional tv of Castilla-La Mancha, a region of Spain the size of Austria, or Czech Republic, and bigger than Ireland, Denmark, or Latvia, or twice the size of Belgium or Netherland. Mr. Jimmy Sui will give a similar talk in Latvia IDUBA-SDAA-BIOR congress the last week of july this year.
Time for democracy! IDUBA holds the scheduled elections for president 2018-2022. We start now the election process in a two step:
1.-From now till 28th of February, candidates (from members of IDUBA) are invited to run for elections. We recommend them to prepare either a program, lines of action, or at least some message (preferably short and in pdf) to send to IDUBA head office (info.iduba@gmail.com). We will send to all members.
2.-After a two week period to present candidacies and program to IDUBA office, voting starts from 11 of April till 10 of may. It is important that all members of IDUBA vote even if there is only one candidate, to show percentage of approval of candidate.
Infoicontechnologies company (http://www.infoicontechnologies.com) is right now developing the application vote in our web page. It will be in the front page instead of the section “Collaborating with IDUBA”. Voting is secret despite being electronic. Voting member and our office will receive e-mail each time a vote has been issued, but nobody can check results until voting is closed, when the result will be automatically published in our web page. Infoicontechnologies company certifies privacy of voting and can be asked about details.
Remember that according to the Constitution of IDUBA, the Vice- Presidents of the Association and Secretary will be appointed by newly elected President. We suggest candidates to tell members which team they would like to appoint.The current President Dr. Tomas Landete-Castillejos will run for a second term.
Last year in March in the Moscow region took place the first practical seminar-conference “Breeding game species as a way of preserving hunting resources. Modern approach. Technologies. Problems. Prospects» organized by LLC DeerLand with the support of the Ministry of Natural Resources and Ecology of the Russian Federation.
The aim of the event was to discuss problems, trends and prospects for the development of breeding game species in Russia and to get acquainted with the experience and modern technologies of breeding used in a number of European countries.
The topic attracted great interest. 93 representatives from 26 constituent territories of the Russian Federation, including heads and specialists of public and subordinated authorities, public organizations, private businesses, foreign specialists from Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Slovakia, and the Czech Republic participated in the seminar-conference.
Participants of the seminar-conference regretted the scarcity of the meetings of this kind in Russia.
Responding to the request, LLC “DeerLand” planned to hold the next practical seminar “Breeding game species-2018″, which will be held March 19-23, 2018.
Taking into account the special attention of the participants to the successful experience of Russian hunting users, it was decided to hold an event in one of the hunting farms of the Kaluga region – “Ozernoe”. For many years this farm is not only engaged in breeding ungulates and feathered game, but it is an example of a successful business project as well.
Among the list of speakers at the seminar are representatives of local hunting farms which became familiar with modern methods of breeding game species and representatives from Poland, Slovakia and Latvia.
The program of the seminar includes three working days (March 20-22). These days there will be plenary sessions with relevant and interesting talks, round tables, as well as an excursion to the hunting complex of the hunting farm “Ozernoe”.
This year we will try to make the seminar really “practical.” We want the participants to spend time with maximum efficiency and receive a lot of useful information.
You can find all details on the website www.deerland.ru in the special section “Second practical seminar “Breeding game species – 2018”.
We will be happy to meet old friends and look forward to new members!
We invite everyone to participate in the second practical seminar ““Breeding game species – 2018”.
Dicherazvedenie-2018″!

According to News Agency Day.Az with reference to AZERTADZH (Azerbaijan State News Agency) one of the widespread types of ecotourism in the modern period is safari tourism.
Due to the fact that the traditional safari is forcing animals to face the threat of extinction, recently the organizers refuse the hunting tours and focus on photosafari. Photosafari is also called “quiet hunting”. Azerbaijan also has wide range of opportunities for carrying out photosafari tours. Natural areas, specially protected in various parts of our country – national parks, reserves can play an important role in attracting foreign tourists to such tours. Questions related to this topic are reflected in the Strategic Roadmap for the Development of a Specialized Tourism Industry in Azerbaijan, approved by President Ilham Aliyev’s Decree of December 6, 2016. The Strategic Roadmap plans a cooperation between the Ministry of Culture and Tourism with the Ministry of Ecology and Natural Resources in order to carry out a research to assess the opportunities of ecological tourism in Azerbaijan. Then, they will prepare a plan of events related to the organization of various tourist activities in national parks. They will also make a schedule of appropriate activities for the created routes. One of the important points is that this document shows as an asset and source of opportunities the creation of the Shamakhi Safari Park, managed by Azer Ekov company, led by our IDUBA vicepresident Tofig Hasanov.
At present, the Shamakhi Safari Park is ready and already accepted the first guests of honor. During the visit to the park, the head of state and the first lady were informed that Azer Ekov LLC, established in Azerbaijan in 2014 with the aim of organizing ecological hunting on the scientific bases, adaptation of wildlife species to the nature of Azerbaijan, in a short time began to work in this direction. The president of Azerbaijan was informed that the first step of “Azər Ekov” LLC was to became the member of Deer and Wild Ungulate breeders Association – IDUBA. Also that later, by decision of IDUBA president in order to promote the huge potential of deer and wild ungulate breeding in this area through Mr. Tofig Hasanov, he was appointed Vice President of IDUBA for Transcaucasia and the Middle East. Thus, “Azər Ekov” LLC was given the right to represent this association in the South Caucasus. Finally, the president was informed that thanks to the meetings coorganized by IDUBA, the members of the organization shared their opinions on breeding animals, hunting, antler trading, producing feed and feed supplements, etc. with “Azər Ekov” LLC, and that this company and Mr. Tofig Hasanov took part in the events of this association as an equal member and sponsor. The aim was to acquire international experience and attracting the interest of foreign specialists to the Azerbaijani nature.
The president was also informed of the characteristics of the safari park. Following the Strategic Roadmap for the Development of a Specialized Tourism Industry in Azerbaijan in order to create an ecological reserve for wild animals in the Shamakhi district, 620 hectares on the territory of a mountainous woodland called Pirgulu were chosen for the reserve. Within these, 480 hectares were fenced in accordance with international standards. Here, 420 genetically valuable animals were released belonging to three species: red deer, fallow deer and mouflon from farms of Latvia, Poland, Slovakia, the Czech Republic and Hungary. As a result of the selective breeding and veterinarian actions, the number of these animals has almost doubled. So, at the present moment there are 790 animals in the park, including 260 red deers, 250 mouflons and 280 fallow deer. An important work was also done in order to create the internal infrastructure of the ecological park. So, a wide road with a length of 36 kilometers was laid. In addition, a large number of natural shelters for animals were created. In order to protect deer, fallow deer and mouflons from external influences and infectious diseases, a 52-kilometer fencing that meets international standards has been built.
An administrative building and a guest house are also built on the territory of the park. The territory of the administrative building and the guest house were landscaped as well. You get more information following the link to two videos on this topic.
