Slog - Comments on Rupert the Tiny Barking Deer http://slog.thestranger.com/2008/10/rupert_the_tiny_barking_deer Slog tipper Mikki writes: Slog used to put cute animal pictures up all the time and I thought this was perfect. This deer is tiny and darling and deserves to be seen by people everywhere: More photos at the Daily Mail, plus details that will give you diabetes of the mind: ...staff at Tiggywinkles Wildlife Hospital in Buckinghamshire believe Rupert, as he has been named, will make a full recovery.... At five days old, he is being kept in an incubator and has just opened his eyes. Mikki, we apologize for being remiss of late in the cute animals department....

But seriously, why haven't they bred mini-deer that you could keep as an outdoor pet? And naturally we would domesticate them to be friendly.

However, I confess this is just about the cutest thing I've ever seen. Ever.

What kind of name is that for a deer? They've doomed that poor deer to being the other guy in all those British period dramas. Colin would've gotten top billing...
