Horrifying moment deer is chased and killed by out-of-control dog in Richmond Park [Video]

This is the terrifying moment a dog chases a deer before mauling it to death in Richmond Park.

A shortened video clip of the latest fatal incident was shared by the Royal Parks Police on social media.

Metropolitan Police officers also posted an image of a man walking away from the scene near Sheen Cross with his spaniel at about 12.30pm on Monday.

Royal Parks Police said on X, formerly Twitter: “Do you know this male, or perhaps more likely, do you recognise the dog?

“We would like to speak to the dog owner in relation to a fatal attack on a deer in Richmond Park.

“As a reminder, It is illegal to allow dogs to chase deer.

“Dog walkers must ensure their pets are under close control at all times and if there is any doubt about their temperament or recall ability, then keep them on a lead.”

It is estimated that three to four deer are killed by dogs every year.
