Abstract
The purpose of this study was to determine the use of captive deer for food security for humans. The method used in this research is a survey. Based on Indonesia Government Regulation No. 8 of 1999 concerning Utilization of Wild Plants and Animals that the results of breeding or captive wild animals of the second generation [F2] and subsequent generations of protected species can be used for trading purposes with a permit as regulated in the Ministerial Regulation. Deer is a type of wild animal that has quite high economic value and has been used intensively to meet the needs of animal protein by people. This is strengthened because since 1990 the Government has issued that deer are one of the potential animals to be developed as livestock. This means that the results of captive Timor deer can be used for various purposes, including for food security.
