Baby deer finding their feet at Knowsley Safari

Baby deer are finding their feet at Knowsley Safari Park.

Keepers at the Merseyside Safari Park have celebrated the arrivals of a number of babies over the past weeks. The park's Père David’s deer and Eland herds can now be seen with their fawns as they get used to their surroundings.

In the first couple of weeks, the fawns remain hidden from view, with visits from their mothers for feeding. After this, they start to graze with the herd at three weeks old.
