Animal Kingdom Uncovered

Red Deer

Red deer are often seen as majestic and regal animals, embodying the spirit of the wild. In zoos, they are given large enclosures to mimic their natural forest habitats. One zoo took this a step further by creating seasonal environments—lush green fields in the summer and snow-covered landscapes in the winter.

A memorable moment occurred when a stag named Orion became the father of twins, an exceptionally rare event for red deer. The zookeepers closely monitored the calves, ensuring they had ample care from their mother and a safe space to grow. Orion, known for his gentle demeanor, became a symbol of family unity, often seen playing with his offspring or standing guard as they explored. Visitors flocked to see the "royal family" of the deer enclosure.
