The aim of the study was to present the serum biochemical values in free-ranging roe deer as useful indicators of the health status of the animal. Blood samples of 63 roe deer (Capreolus capreolus) were collected during regular annual harvest in Slovenia and analysed for biochemical indicators. The following mean values were recorded: aspartate aminotransferase (3 µkat), alanine aminotransferase (0.7 µkat), alkaline phosphatase (1.5 µkat), lactate dehydrogenase (11.8 µkat), gamma glutamyltransferase (1.9 µkat), creatine kinase (16.3 µkat), urea (6.3 mmol/l), creatinine (136.9 μmol/l), total serum proteins (65.5 g/l), cholesterol (4
