    I see a few references to Muntjac recently and was wondering has anyone actually seen or heard any of these mythical creatures.

    Surely with all the different shooting sports that goes on at this time of year somebody or some dog will have come across one if they are there.

    You've offended no one dude, sorry if that's how it came across. It's just that that topic has been all over the shop lately. Sorry again if you thought I was having a go. I really wasn't;) I'm not trying to piss anyone off. LR

    Thanks for your help mod but you put up ten links and suggested "a few". Maybe i am paranoid but that smacks of sarcasm to me.

    You must be. I meant nothing by it, and frankly its annoying when i try to help and have to explain why because you misread my intentions.

    Also there are DOZENS of threads on Muntjac. I gave you the ten most relevant.

    About 20 inches tall, and about 20kg. Not a huge animal, but a fecking pest.

    As not one has been verified its hard to tell what 10 or 15 would do unless you check out the facts on them on Google.
