Why the Royal Parks want you to keep dogs on leads

Available for over a year

The Royal Parks is asking dog owners to keep their pets on leads from now until the end of July. It's because it's the season for new-born deer, especially in places like Bushy and Richmond Parks. Last month, a fallow deer was mauled and killed in a suspect dog attack, and on a separate occasion a whippet was seen chasing a herd of around 30 fallow deer. So to boost efforts to ensure the safety of the new-borns, the Royal Parks charity is recruiting 90 additional volunteer rangers. Âé¶¹Éç Radio London's Salma El-Wardany has been speaking to to one of the rangers. (Image credit: Getty Images)
