Image of Sika deer

Description:

The Sika Deer roam freely in Nara Park, in the city of Nara, Japan. There were many already when I visited Nara in 1990, but I understand they have multiplied and becoming a nuisance now. They follow people, beg for food, and act like stray dogs, sad. Not sure if I should check the captive box; I observed the deer out in the open, but it was not its natural habitat. The date on the watermark was when I uploaded this photo to the new defunct website LightBox. I do not remember the exact date of the observation.
