Nara, Japan – a 1,000 year old wooden temple protected by 1,000 Hungry Mini Deer!

I want your cookie!

My only weapon is the delicious Deer Cookie… I might survive, if I don’t eat all the cookies myself!

i_eat_cookie

Mmm, deer cookies...

Suddenly I’m surrounded my a mob of hungry deer

I trade you... my cookie for my freedom

Since we’re in Japan, they bow first to show respect. Then the headbutting and shirt-chewing commence!

(The bow was actually their first headbutt attempt, which missed… so I took it as a respectful bow)

Ah, a respectful deer bow, so polite

…and now down to business

You will hand over the cookie!

They want those cookies so bad, nothing will stop them.

Up, up and away!

I’m forced to retreat

Noooooo!

Luckily, some fallen ice cream distracts them long enough for me to make my escape.

Thank you, ice cream

Whew, I got out just in time…

I think I’ll get some Green Tea ice cream myself — hold the deer, please!
