Spike lounges under the names of the bucks who have died since the deer arrived at the Florida Road site on May 26, 2007...almost three years ago.
We lost Ty and Dandy in November 2008 and Koko early this year in January 2010.
The Reserve (near Kingston, Canada) began in 2005 when Don Murphy and Wendy Workman rescued over 100 non-native deer from slaughter, helped by dedicated volunteers and donors. Does and fawns were moved to Quebec in 2006. Eight surviving bucks now live in this permanent, well-fenced reserve, respected and cared for by Allan Park, Jane McDonald and volunteers. We do not buy, sell or breed animals. A registered charity. All photos by Jane McDonald unless otherwise noted.
