Hungry deer gets bird feeder jammed in mouth for nine weeks

A deer which survived nine weeks with a metal bird feeder trapped in her mouth has had the object removed.

The wild deer, which has been named Mary, had still been managing to feed every night in Peter Sluggett's garden in Plymouth.



RSPCA officers managed to catch the deer on Wednesday night and were able to remove the feeder.

"She has become just like one of the family, we love her to bits. I can't thank them enough," said Mr Sluggett.
