Muntjac

[yorksjt]

I found these in an area where I’ve seen roe but never a muntjac. The key is 3.5 cm wide. Do you think they are muntjac or young roe? They weren’t any larger prints around. These were taken in Barnsley next to a freight railway line. I’ve seen muntjac in Sheffield but no further north.

It's that time of year it could be a roe fawn

I’ve not seen a real lot of muntjac slots, but what always stands out to me is that they seem to push the tips of the hoof into the ground a little. Just like on these photos.

Looks like munty to me, about the width of your thumb, the tip slightly deeper.

Pick that up and place it 200m from my farm gate and it wouldn’t look out of place at all.

I'd say it belongs to a human. Never seen any deer carrying keys before.
