&lt;p&gt;The long-term population dynamics of the red deer (&lt;em&gt;Cervus elaphus&lt;/em&gt; L.) and European roe deer (&lt;em&gt;Capreolus&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;capreolus&lt;/em&gt; L.) at the mountain and forest zone of Crimea during 1980-2017 is presented. Fluctuations in numbers of both species are cyclical and partly synchronous. Period of oscillations in the population of red deer is about 25 years, the average duration of the oscillation period of number of roe deer is 12.3 years. Durin
