Summary: Well not strictly true. We didn't meet THE Lone Ranger, we met A Ranger, who was on his own, so technically he was 'alone' Ranger :) Anyway, pun aside, Richard Eales is a Ranger for Exmoor National Park and we decided to spend some time with him and a few others for a morning on Exmoor tracking and learning more about the wild Deer on the Park during August 2016. Although a simple thing to do, it was fascinating way to spend a few hours with someone who has a great understanding and passion for the animals. The conversation and questions from those attending ebbed and flowed regarding the habits, the relationship with local farmers, the ticks and to some extent, the financial benefits they bring to the area in the form of tourists. See website for the full story.
