When one of the Female Reindeer got caught in the bramble yesterday afternoon it seemed to disappear once it had been released. One of us thought that we had seen it the other side of the fence but as quick as it had disappeared we saw it come from a hedge. We thought that we had not seen it feeding close in to hedge. This morning when I went to feed the Reindeer another one was missing and appeared when I put the feed in to the feed trough. Late this afternoon again another female was missing, and after walking around in the inside perimeter of the Reindeer field I caught sight of it on the other side of the fence. By the time we had got round to the place where we had seen it it had managed to get back inside the fence.
I must admit I didn’t expect the Reindeer would be able to get through the fence. It is fence from when we bred Ostriches. Six evenly spaced horizontal wires six foot high in between ten foot spaced posts. I couldn’t imagine the Reindeer with their antlers being able to get through the fencing. Unfortunately they are, and it is a problem that I have not expected. We have needed to find the time to tie strings vertically to each wire where there are see through places in the hedge, hopefully this will stop the Reindeer from pushing through the wire as now the gaps cant be increased. We will have to wait and see.
What I am worried about is that the Reindeer may be able to breed with our native breeds of Deer, if they can then it is possible that our Females may go off if they get the scent of another Male Deer.
