Check out what I discovered in Metro this morning.

Wild deer are joining badgers and foxes to live and breed in towns and cities. Small species such as the muntjac and roe deer can live comfortably in shrubbery or overgrown areas in the suburbs because of their small size. They are invading urban environments around Golders Green and the North Circular Road in London, as well as Cambridge, Sheffield, Leeds, Oxford and Northampton, according to the British Deer Society.


Anyone seen any deer in Sheffield?

This might be the answer! (http://www.sheffieldforum.co.uk/showthread.php?postid=155075#post155075) :o

I think I would have preferred Wallabies jumping around in the Sheffield undergrowth instead :D

Deadly Snakes Found in Sheffield Home
Sheffield, South Yorkshire
Inspector Martin Daly, Special Operations Unit
RSPCA inspectors helped police uncover a collection of eight deadly snakes during a raid on a Sheffield flat in February 2000.
Inspectors from the RSPCA’s special operations unit helped identify and collect two highly venomous gaboon vipers, three puff adders, two sidewinders and one copperhead kept in cramped conditions.Their owner admitted he knew it was an offence to keep the snakes without a Dangerous Wild Animal licence, but said he had chosen not to apply for one. The local authority did not prosecute the owner. The snakes have now been rehomed to West Midlands Safari Park, where they receive specialist care.RSPCA chief inspector Martin Daly said: “These snakes were very big, aggressive species that should never have been kept as pets. If they escaped one bite could prove fatal, unless treated quickly with special anti-venom. “Without a Dangerous Wild Animal licence, the authorities are not aware that these species are being kept in their areas and are unlikely to have procedures in place to treat casualties.

“We are extremely disappointed that the council chose not to prosecute in this case. It sets a dangerous precedent. Local authorities have a vital role to play in enforcing the law and making it clear that such breaches will not be tolerated


Can ya imagine if these ******** started breedin and livin in the undergrowth
