Roaring to the world

The roaring of the red deer stags in Dyrehaven at autumn rivals even the noise of the visiting kindergartens. As with the fighting in yesterdays post you have to keep out of the way because these stags only have eye on their harem and on competing stags. On a couple of occasions I nearly managed to get trampled by some of these animals as the stag tried to keep his ladies in line.

Fighting

At autumn you might get lucky to see the fights between the red deer stags which can be quite spectacular when out walking in Dyrehaven north of Copenhagen. Just don't get in the way because these boys are oblivious to anything other than their opponents (and the ladies of course) when in rut.
