Very impressive but curious-looking deer. I've only seen them once, in Rotterdam Zoo. Very long ears and the stag's antlers are almost vertical, as if they've been 'stuck on' as an afterthought. I'd like to see Edinburgh's herd sometime.
They are indeed wonderful animals - they took some finding at Lodz, though, I can tell you - hidden away in a paddock only viewable from within the model dinosaur park bit. It's a good thing we were in a childish mood that day, or we'd have missed them!
Actually, it was one of the better sets of dinosaur models I've seen.

Heh, I never been in this dinosaur park and I never seen in "my" zoo this species. For normal guest, it is not possible to see this deers. There are hidden behind asian birds house. It's strange but this can be explained. This deers are hidden away visitors, but every years our media say about births this species in our zoo.
Young from Lodz, are for example in Edinburgh's.
If you saw this deer from model dinosaur park, then I also can try see them.
Yes - there was a small herd visible from the dinosaur area - there's not really a viewing point and I can't remember if they were labelled but if it helps, this is the photo I took immediately before this one of the deer (so when you see Parasaurolophus, peer over the fence! ):
Actually, Peter, you may be able to solve a mystery for me - the night we stayed in Lodz in September 2008 there was a fire in the centre of town with a lot of streets closed off etc - do you remember what had happened? Was hard to tell how much damage was done.
Made for some interesting photos in the city centre.
