The idea is not to draw this wild animal, but to be able to bring back serenity on the side of the rue du Cours d’Eaux – signs had even been placed to dissuade the walkers from entering a small wood located at the end of the neighborhood – it had been agreed to call on a specialized association, which would try to capture it to release it elsewhere.
“We had taken a net to capture it”
The ASBL Animal Disaster Team, specialized in the rescue of animals throughout the Belgian territory, had been requested by the Brain police. She had accepted this mission and, at first, a WhatsApp group was created so that residents who are in frequent contact with the animal locate it and communicate to managers of the habits they would have noticed in this brocard. The goal was to be able to find it without organizing a kind of hunt that was likely to frighten it.“We were told that he was often spotted in a property around noonConfitme Lara Sohet, the coordinator of the Asbl. We went there on Wednesday at this hour on Wednesday and we actually saw it quickly. As he was described as aggressive, we said he was in charge, and we had taken a net to capture him. “
At first, as the members of the association were six on site, the deer seemed a little intimidated. The participants then separated into three groups of two people, and this strategy immediately paid. In a good quarter of an hour, the animal was in the nets of the volunteers.
For Lara Sohet, the behavior of this brocade is quite exceptional. Its fellows, which the members of the non -profit organization are used to capturing, be wary of humans and always tend to flee. In Lillois, it was not the attitude of the animal, which did not seem to be very afraid of man.“It had only happened to us until now, with a deer that was in an industrial zoning, which had been fed by humans and which had been aggressive at the time of the rutsays animal coordinator Disaster Team. I don’t know if that was the case in Lille. Even once captured, the brocade was of course a little debated, but it did not show signs of big stress that we often observe in these cases. “
We know that deer are fairly fragile animals and can make heart attacks when manipulated. The ASBL has special cages where the animal is placed in the dark in order to remain calm. Transport, from Lille, went well for him and the brocade “made in Braine-l’Alleud” Gambade now in the Ardennes countryside.
“We released it in a Natura 2000 area, where no hunting is organizedthe lara prin. And there are not any authorized walks there either, so there should be no problem with humans. “
