Apparently we had a muntjac deer in the nature reserve at school.
My first question - oooh! can I see it?
My second - how are we going to get rid of it?
The second puzzled many staff. They didn't know that the muntjac is out of its natural habitat in England. It was introduced by the Duke of Bedford; Buckinghamshire has a border with Bedfordshire. It is a destructive animal in terms of native woodland.
I refer you to this Hungarian proverb:
Never trust a rabbit. They may look like a child’s toy but they eat your crops.
(although this is almost certainly made up by Jeremy Dyson)
