Even though no tail, I'm still thinking coypu. If it was anything else we have in this country, you'd have recognised it. I guess a coypu could be attacked and lose it's tail...

Are you up in East Anglia, Dirty?

I was driving about near Lowestoft the other month and very nearly hit a Muntjac, then about a mile later, nearly hit a half dozen Roe deer.

I have now installed a deer whistle.

hehe
I'm on the outskirts of Lowestoft, dissapointed you didn't make your whereabouts known for a pint.

Loads of deer.
