Stag moves into hunters’ club garden, becomes mascot of French village
The animal has been named Etienne after the village where he now lives
A village has announced a new mascot – a wild stag which has chosen to live in the gardens of the local hunters’ club. The stag replaces a former mascot stag ‘Emile’, who died a year ago after six years among the locals.
The hunters have become attached to the newly named Etienne – named after the village, Saint-Etienne-de-Tinée, in the back country behind Nice – with the hunt association president being shown in a video petting the stag and calling it ‘my baby.’
