Wild deer escapes temple, set free again
Animal-control officers
have turned the young deer over to the Banglamung Wildlife Center to be
released in a safe wooded area.

A wild deer that escaped from captivity at a Sattahip temple has
been set free again.
A Samae San Moo 1 village headman alerted district officials that the
animal had escaped from Khao Luang Poh Dam Temple Sept. 21. He feared
local residents would capture and kill the animal for food.
The deer was spotted rummaging through people’s yards, looking for food.
Animal-control officers needed an hour to capture the deer.
They then handed it over to the Banglamung Wildlife Center to be
released in a safe wooded area.
The Buddhist Sangha Supreme Council in August issued new regulations
prohibiting temples nationwide from raising or keeping wild species and
producing talismans out of parts of protected or endangered species.
