There have also been a number of sightings of deer in urban city areas over the last couple of years.

Last May, deer were spotted swimming in Kelham Island, and more deer were seen jumping over a fence near the Cholera Monument on Claywood Drive.

In lockdown, a Muntjac deer was seen trotting around a Sheffield city centre car park, and a badger was spotted on the deserted concourse of Sheffield railway station.
