Hansel

Hansel's antlers continued to give him trouble in the days following his accident. We expected them to fall off quite quickly but it soon became clear that that was not going to happen. On Tuesday we examined him and it was clear that his condition was very grave indeed; he hadn't broken the actual antlers but the pedicle below them (the pedicle is the part of his skull that supports the antlers).

He was put down later that evening.

We will miss this mischievious, handsome buck very much indeed.
