Roe deer are becoming more established in Scottish cities
A DEER was seen wandering the streets on Glasgow city centre at 6am this morning.
A video of the animal running in front of Office on Buchanan street was posted to Twitter.
It is unclear how it got there but roe deer are apparently becoming more established in Scottish cities and large towns including Glasgow, Dumfries, Paisley, East Kilbride and Ayr.
There are estimated to be around 700,000 wild deer in Scotland, with the majority being Red Deer (up to 400,000), closely followed by Roe Deer (up to 350,000).
Still can’t get over the fact there was a deer outside my work on Buchanan Street at 6 o’clock this morning... pic.twitter.com/FSCA30uD5o

Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
Callum Baird, Editor of The National
