About Shika Curry (Curry made with venison)
Shika Curry is a specialty of Lake Motosu and Lake Shōji. Venison has a lighter taste than beef and is appealing for being low in calories and high in protein. In Fujikawaguchiko, crop damage caused by wild deer—particularly to the pastures in the expansive natural area of the Fujigane district—became increasingly serious. This led to the idea of culling deer as harmful wildlife and making use of the meat to create a new local specialty.
