Guest JOEB Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 Found 2 deer slots a month back, and we have never had deer in our area. My close pals would not beleive me, even when I showed them the picture on the phone. They have hunted for more than 20 years, and could not beleive that we would have deer in our area. Well, I was out with the dogs tonight and I took the lamp with me just to have a look myself. All of a sudden 2 pairs of eyes show up in the lamp and sitting there are a pair of muntjac..........now I know its summer and all that but if I could of got the dog sighted I could not have resisted having a slip. As it was they quickly dived into cover, but when they do slip up, I will be waiting :ph34r: :whistle: I am not gonna say feck all to my pals about seeing them, just bide my time and show them the carcass when the time right :ph34r: ..........I new those feckers were trhere JOEB Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest JOEB Posted August 2, 2006 Report Share Posted August 2, 2006 All very true lads & lasses ............lets just hope I am thinking clearly when I spot them again. I allways have the best intentions, but when game shows up in the light I just cant help wanting to hunt it. I would also be pig sick if some other fecker finds them and brings me the carcass know what I mean JOEB Quote Link to post Share on other sites

doddsy1970 9 Posted August 5, 2006 Report Share Posted August 5, 2006 I live in bedfordshire and they are a real pest there a literally thousands of them. They cause road traffic accidents and massive crop damage. Because they don't have a mating season as such they can breed 2 or 3 times a year. Yes they do look cute and sweet but they are a non native species and should be eradicated. (That's only my opinion though) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
