Muntjac in Northwest Kent?

[Kentish]

I went for a walk at Chartwell yesterday and am sure I bumped a muntjac - didn't see it for more than half a sec but a small brown deer running off through the woods with a pointy white tail clearly held aloft. I've Never seen any round me (north of Sevenoaks). Anyone else seeing them around here?

Saw a couple at Groomridge Place a while back. Likewise, all I usually see this way is fallow, fallow, and more fallow.

I'm Hartfield

Plenty of muntjac around that area, I sort the foxes on two areas near there and always bumping into one or two at night

Hope they move towards paddock wood area on my perm need some thing to shoot.

@bottletopbill sorry to say but it was running in the opposite direction.

I live in Shoreham, surrounded by motorways. We have plenty of roe locally but no fallow at all, (even though they're plentiful a couple of miles away at the other side of the A21) and I've never seen any sign of muntjac.

Painter & decorator? If it's the same Keith (skinner) he's super fit now, out training all the time with one of sky Dave's sons - putting me to shame!

We were trying to make the move out your way recently (well burwash actually so not super nearby) but Liz truss had other ideas.

SussexSteve hope you left some for me

I worked on the Shoreham airfield for Ricardo special vehicles and had that Spitfire full size mock up parked outside my window back in 1996. They had a .50 Browning in the safe to use to check the fit on the pintles for the SAS dine buggy Landies they were building

There is a dead muntjac doe on the London bound entry slip road on junction 4 of the M20 West malling. Didn't realize they were about there.

Today it appears that the muntjac has been moved, but probably just half a mile further on there is a fallow dead in the centre of the motorway by the concrete blocks, again didn't realise that we had fallow this close to home.

Always more roadkill about near a bank holiday…..less council pickup shifts scheduled ?
