Introduced individuals were firstly bred in enclosures; however, after World War II several individuals escaped and formed free-living populations. Expanding sika deer population endangers the native red deer by crossbreeding. The aim of this study was to estimate genetic diversity and population structure of red and sika deer populations in the Czech Republic using microsatellite markers and to determine if hybridisation has occurred. More crossbred individuals were detected in captivity than in free-living populations, and higher level of hybridisation was detected between sika deer subspecies than between sika deer and red deer. However, our results indicate that hybrid individuals between red deer, Japanese sika deer and/or Dybowski sika are present in free-living European red deer and sika deer populations and also in native Dybowski sika deer, Japanese sika deer, and Manchurian wapiti populations.
