Small town in Shizuoka Prefecture hopes to bring in tourists and keep away pests by turning its residents into the walking dead.
The oldest shika senbei maker in the city gives us an inside look and a fresh-cooked taste.
The animals are the symbol of the city, but our local reporter is worried they might be migrating away.
Pretty much everyone who visits Nara stops by the park to feed crackers to the deer, so are the smaller crowds leaving them hungry?
Videos show herds of deer galloping down streets and stopping traffic as they search for food.
With thousands less tourists in Nara due to the Coronavirus, this year’s winter celebrations seem strangely more magical.
Twitter is alight with delight over this stunning shot of a kimono-clad girl and her dainty deer friend.
