Why the Royal Parks want you to keep dogs on leads
The Royal Parks is asking dog owners to keep their pets on leads from now until the end of July.
It's because it's the season for new-born deer, especially in places like Bushy and Richmond Parks.
Last month, a fallow deer was mauled and killed in a suspect dog attack, and on a separate occasion a whippet was seen chasing a herd of around 30 fallow deer.
So to boost efforts to ensure the safety of the new-borns, the Royal Parks charity is recruiting 90 additional volunteer rangers.
