The objective of this paper was to map the extent of bark stripping by red deer, to determine the time of the damage and to monitor the progress of the rot caused by Stereum sanguinolentum in peeled stems. The bark stripping was observed in 85 % of forest stands. In the most damaged 2nd and 4th age classes, rot caused by Stereum sanguinolentum was noticed in 89 % of damaged trees. The greatest proportion of damages occurred in the 70s of the last century. The average loss of wood was the highest in the 2nd age class (38 %). The progress of the rot ranged from 1 to 36.4 cm/year.
