【No. 0566】Deer in Nara Park

Jul 6, 2016 10:03
Nara Park, which is located in Nara Prefecture of Japan, has about 660 hectares, and is well known that a plenty deer are living there.

The number is no less than 1500, and you can see deer in many places in the park.

In Nara Park, "shika senbei" (deer rice crackers) are sold, and if you buy them, deer around you will approach you.

Also, events called "shikayose" (huddling deer) are sometimes performed by playing a horn, and a herd of deer in the event is worth seeing.

Few years ago, images/videos of deer in Nara Park became small news, because deer seemed to obey the traffic signals.

Since deer can't identify the color of the signals, they might wait for cars to stop or be attuned to around people.

Anyway, I think they are a very smart animal.
奈良公園の鹿

日本の奈良県にある奈良公園は、約660ヘクタールの面積を有しており、敷地内に多くの鹿が生息していることで有名です。

その数は約1500頭と非常に多く、いたるところで鹿を見ることができます。

公園内では鹿のおやつである「鹿せんべい」を売っており、これを買うと周囲の鹿が寄ってきます。

また、ホルンを演奏して鹿を寄せ集めるイベント「鹿寄せ」もあり、とても見応えがあります。

以前、奈良公園の鹿がしっかり信号待ちしているという画像・動画が話題になりました。

鹿は信号の色を識別することはできないので、車の流れが止まるのを待ったり、周囲の人間の動きに合わせているだけだと思います。

いずれにしても、賢い動物です。

They do seem very smart, but also a little scary! I was bitten by one when I bought the shika senbei. haha

I've heard that people are supposed to make the deer bow before feeding them. Bowing deer must be very polite, haha

Haha, yes. I think they understand that the polite attitude is conducive to senbei :)
