We live in what was once a royal forest and I sometimes wonder how much ordinary people in bygone centuries must have hated deer. The penalties for killing them (or even posessing a dog that might harm them) were horrific. All we see nowadays is the occasional muntjak.

*nods* Couldn't agree more. Suspect there was a lot of ill feeling when royal hunting parks were created.

No wonder Robin Hood was so popular!

I wouldn't be in the least bit surprised if there isn't a connection.
