We're lucky to be right on the doorstep of the most beautiful spot in London, Bushy Park.

One of the main charms of the parks are the deer that roam free through the area.

It is important however that you stay 50m away from the animals especially during the rutting season.

Unfortunately a picture emerged this week of one man getting far too close.

The man is feeding deer bread from his hands despite standing right next to a sign telling him to keep his distance.

A seven-year-old girl being photographed next to a rutting stag was attacked and had to go to hospital in 2018.

The man in the photo was left unscathed but it is important to keep that crucial 50m from the deer.
