16th annual stag imitation contest held in Germany

The 16th annual stag imitation competition has taken place in Dortmund, Germany.



Using ox horns, giant snail shells and plastic pipes, each of Germany's top deer imitators had to try their hand at a "young stag", "stag among females" and "victorious stag after single combat".

Judges then rated the contestants on their abilities.

The eventual winner was Immo Ortlepp who goes on to compete in the European Championships later this month in Salzburg, Austria.
