A Fallow deer buck and females, during the rut
This is a Fallow deer buck during the breeding season. This male is bellowing, a sign of aggression, intended to intimidate other rival males. Fallow deer are not originally a species native to the UK, but they have been naturalised since at least the middle ages.
