Japanese Deer Are So Polite They Bow

Japan is widely seen as the most polite nation on earth - but now even the animals are getting in on the act. A tourist has filmed the moment he bows at a wild deer - before it stuns everyone and bows back. The deer can be seen bowing its head gently towards tourist Darren Meale, who reciprocates and bows back. Suddenly the polite deer bows again in acknowledgement as the two go back and forth. Darren, who was travelling through Japan with his girlfriend Kate Bristow, who filmed the funny encounter, said: “We were feeding deer with official deer food and entirely spontaneously I decided to be very Japanese and bow at the deer - only to find they bow back!” The wild - but relatively tame deer - can be found in Nara Park, 40-minutes outside of Osaka.
