3. Water source conditions: before building the site, sika deer should conduct necessary surveys and investigations on groundwater level, natural water source, water quantity and water quality, and pay attention to the content of inorganic salts in the water, and avoid using natural water sources on the ground such as rivers or polluted water sources near the site.

4. Traffic conditions: the sika deer site should be 1.0-1.5 km away from the road and 5-10 km away from the railway, so as to facilitate the supply of equipment, feed and products, and facilitate the life of workers. At the same time, the power should be sufficient and close to the power supply.
