Muntjac deer

Fanged deer update

Just last week in our Alien Invaders series, we told you about the muntjac deer, a Bambi lookalike with nasty fangs that can kill a dog.

The concern was that if they got into the wild here they could destroy much of our native habitat.

This morning, a muntjac deer was found dead at the side of a road in County Down.

As our Environment Correspondent Mike McKimm reports, it is a worrying development.
