00:00This video was recently captured at the Woburn Abbey Deer Park in the UK,
00:04and this is the moment a stag got a little defensive about his territory.
00:09Two tradesmen were on their way to a job and were passing through the park,
00:13a place where deer are currently in their mating season.
00:15Stags are known for being extremely aggressive during this time,
00:18which is why driver Chris slowed down as to not get too close.
00:22After a near clash of antlers just ahead, the deer separated, leaving a clear roadway.
00:26However, as Chris drove by, the stag turned and charged at the vehicle.
00:30Chris began to drive away and the deer gave chase,
00:32with the van narrowly escaping another ramming.
00:35Which is good news, considering the cost of damages caused by the initial charge.
00:39According to Chris, the vehicle is still in the shop,
00:42and it's going to cost him around $1,300 to repair the damages caused by the stag.
00:47Chris says that the pair were a little shaken up by the close encounter,
00:50but added that the deer hit him worse in his wallet.
