Victoria Police referred all calls about the cheeky deer to Wildlife Victoria, who consulted Vets for Compassion about what should be done with the animal.
Wildlife Victoria decided the most most humane thing to do would be to euthanise the deer, according to expert
Barry Howlett (a fitting name for an animal expert if you ask me).
“It’d be very difficult to effectively sedate it and then you’d have the problem that it’s actually illegal to release these animals in the wild anyway,” Howlett said.
