None Nick. Stags are not native to Australia, some have been introduced though.

THE TOOHEYS STAG

Beer men through and through, John and James Tooheys favourite pub was the
"Bald Faced Stag" - a venue known for its lively atmosphere and good times.

In celebration of their beloved local, the brothers put an image of the stag on
every bottle of Tooheys beer, on the walls of the Standard Brewery, on their
beer barrels and pretty much anything else they could get their hands on.

You can visit the original pub today. Not much has changed....
