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.
On Thursday, April 8, Murph joined the group of antler-less bucks. He's hanging out as far away from the herd as possible, shaking his head as he learns how to adjust to his new, more vulnerable status.
