Deer with hammock festooned in antlers wins raves in northwestern B.C.
PRINCE RUPERT, B.C. — A deer with part of a purple hammock laced around his antlers has inspired a Facebook page, popular line of T-shirts and tremendous public interest in a northern British Columbia city.
But the buck’s bonnet won’t last much longer.
Hammy, as he has been dubbed, rose to notoriety during the summer when he got stuck in a backyard hammock in Prince Rupert.
RCMP officers freed him but Hammy raced away before the hammock fringe could be tugged off his head.
