18 Ağustos 2026BBC News

Feeding deer in London's Royal Parks poses several safety risks, both to humans and the animals themselves. It can lead to dependency on human food, which is not suitable for their diet, and may cause aggressive behavior as deer become accustomed to human interaction.
Visitors are encouraged to observe these majestic creatures from a distance and capture their beauty through photography instead of feeding them.
Royal Parks in London are home to a variety of wildlife, including deer, which attract many visitors. However, the interaction between humans and wildlife can lead to unintended consequences, prompting park authorities to issue guidelines against feeding these animals.
The practice of feeding deer in urban parks raises significant concerns regarding animal welfare and public safety. While it may seem harmless, such actions can disrupt the natural behaviors of wildlife and create dangerous situations for both the animals and park-goers.
