The province of South Holland is not allowed to shoot the fallow deer in the Hoeksche Waard. The court has ruled again that the justification for killing the entire population is insufficient. Five years ago, the judge also blocked the shooting of the animals in the rural area.

Fallow deer in the Hoeksche Waard may no longer be shot. The province of South Holland wanted to get rid of the population, but on Thursday the court ruled that an earlier decision to cull was not sufficiently substantiated. To the great relief of activist Ray de Boon, who has been working for five years to save the deer.
