- Story Text: You expect nature when you are on vacation in the countryside but families were surprised when two stags turned up and plonked themselves in the front garden of their holiday rental.
The beautiful male red deer were later seen pushing themselves through the undergrowth as people watched from a distance in Villetta Barria in the Italian Abruzzo region.
Visitors now travel to site to see the herd of deer - who seem to take all the attention in their stride.
The average weight of an adult stag is between 80 to 100kg (180 to 220lb) and their antlers typically measure about 71 centimetres (28 inches) in length.
So probably a good idea not to get too close.
