CHONGQING (CQNEWS) -- Recently, a video of a deer appearing at Chongqing University of Education sparked concern. In the video posted online, the deer is seen with its antlers erect and walking leisurely around the campus.

Did the deer really enter the campus? In this regard, the reporter got confirmation from Chongqing University of Education and found from the surveillance video that the deer, which did appear in the middle of the night yesterday near the student dormitory building, has now left.

And where did this deer come from? The reporter interviewed Duan Biao, deputy head of the College of Fisheries of Southwest University, who said that the deer in the video could be a plum deer judging from its size and should be domesticated. “It is assumed that the campus environment is similar to that in which this deer grew up, and that is why the deer entered the campus by mistake,” Duan Biao said.

The person in charge of the Publicity Department of Chongqing University of Education told the reporter that after the deer was found, the Security Office of the University searched the campus, but no trace of the deer was found again. Therefore, presumably it has now left the campus. (Translated by Wang Huixin, Fathom Language Limited)
