Nara Park (Page 2)
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.

Increasing numbers of the nationally protected species are being affected by plastic bag consumption.
Breathtaking images from a skilled photographer show that even one day in Japan’s former capitals is enough for unforgettable beauty.
