Do you like my new look? The unlucky in love stag lets out a loud cry to let the ladies know he had a new hairstyle


It moss be love for this stag, who after donning a wig made up of the green stuff, suddenly found himself surrounded by the ladies.

And this is the hilarious moment the luckless stag decided to try on a brand new hairdo to attract a frisky female, and ended up leaving with two.

The sorry stag had been spotted wandering through Richmond Park on his own for days before getting fed up and trying a new technique.


So after a quick dip in the lake he threw an enormous grassy wig onto his antlers and let out a huge call to find a female.

And his new do appeared to work because after dramatically fighting off another powerful stag he proudly paraded away into the bracken with two deer.

The extraordinary scenes were captured by keen photographer Robert Piper, 55, who couldn't believe his eyes as the bizarre moment unfolded.

He said: 'Sometimes the stags adorn themselves with bracken to impress the females - and it must somehow strike a chord.

'But the head gear can also attract other stags and on occasions will end up with a fight exactly like what happened here.

'This stag did find a female but keeping her was another matter because other stags became jealous and tried to fight him.

'But he fought them off and eventually had two deer following him around. People looking on found the display quite amusing especially as he had been on his own for days.'
