Agree with one of the comments- muntjac deer. pretty rare. Very nervous animals though this one is chancing its luck in Eltham. Has probably made its way from Oxleas wood.2

Wouldn't want to be stuck behind them at the traffic lights ay.0

Looks like a Tamandua to me0

Deffo not a muntjac.1

No, it really isn't. It's face is too long and its gait all wrong.1

100% Muntjac. Got them round here in Lancashire now - seen them a few times out riding my bike at dusk. They're weird looking - not like you'd expect a deer to look at all - and their call is more like a dog's bark.1

Deer. Non-native species, quite invasive over the past few years. Breed readily and much more secretive than native deer - tend to stay away from roads and paths and are much smaller.stop_shouting said:

I even provided a link. Click the first link, then my link. If they're the same it's a muntjac. They're the same so it is a muntjac.stop_shouting said:

Not rare down in the South west. Have a pair in our garden most days.swords_alive said:Agree with one of the comments- muntjac deer. pretty rare. Very nervous animals though this one is chancing its luck in Eltham. Has probably made its way from Oxleas wood.
The last time it snowed on Christmas Day (13 years ago?) we were opening presents with the kids, opened the curtains, and there was one in the garden. For years they believed they had season Rudolph having a break.1 -
Plenty of muntjac in Epping Forest , mainly on their own sometimes in a 2 ball, never any large firms of them like the normal deer round here . We’ve got one who appears every so often in the garden , ugly fuckers

Plenty here in Berkshire. See them in the woods reasonably frequently, usually the dog spots them first, or squashed on the A40
-
Yeah, not rare here in the Fens.
probably the most common animal you see driving around tbh
On the flip side, never seen a fox since I’ve moved up here.0 -

Same as what I saw 5 mins ago.2 -
Muntjac, deer equivalent of grey squirrels, pigeons and rats. Not sure if there is good eating on one but definitely need shooting0

I know, but I'm very fussy about about my Muntjac observations and I know when something isn't one.Leroy Ambrose said:

That's right it's a muntjac, a muntjac that's been forced through a plastic extrusion machine so that its head is twice the usual length. Glad we settled that.Leroy Ambrose said:
