The owner tracked the stag down. Chased it in a ute until it tired.
The deer can really move fast and are not an easy animal to herd into transports, but we did it. (Never again for me. LOL)
It's fortunate for me that they can jump high, as the deer only clipped the Mini.

If I was in the work van probably would have come through the windscreen.

Cheers,
