Deer Lord

Welcome to another episode of Animal Planet with Eve. Today we are spending the morning in a peat bog where this king of the forest, a magnificent deer stag has been making its presence known. Just look at those antlers, he must be a motherfucking player! I'm not vegan but seeing an animals this gorgeous humbles you and really makes you appreciate every bite of meat you eat.

Peat bog is like a zoo with so much wildlife that it's unbelievable if you haven't seen it yourself. You would think wild animals are afraid of big tractors, but no, they don't seem to mind at all. They actually like being in the bog because there is less bugs and they can come and drink from the trenches.

What they are afraid of, is humans, and to get these shots, I was in the tractor and reeeeally carefully opened the door. Then I jumped out from the other side, and kept walking behind the moving tractor so the deer wouldn't notice anything different. I finally came out of hiding and then the deer decided it's time to go back to the woods, but he'll probably be back tomorrow.

My dad calls me almost every day to inform me of the animals he has seen that day. This deer stag was a new addition, and dad said it's the biggest one he has ever seen. If you wanna see all kinds of moose and deer in the wild, let me know, I'll hook you up.
