Deer are being spotted more and more often in the Minsk region. One of the encounters with a wild animal ended in a fatal accident.
Residents from various parts of the Minsk region are increasingly reporting the appearance of moose on roads and near populated areas. The day before, one of these meetings led to tragedy.
The accident happened around 18:30 at the 25th kilometer of the M4 highway "Minsk - Mogilev". According to the traffic police, a 49-year-old Toyota driver collided with a deer that suddenly ran onto the road. The car then slid into the right ditch and overturned.
Sadly, the 70-year-old passenger died at the scene. The driver and another passenger, a 49-year-old woman, were taken to the hospital.
But moose are also noticed in other areas of the capital.
So, yesterday the reader first met a moose, and then a moose on the forest road from the "Green Harbor" in the direction of Bolshoi Trostenets. It happened around 6:00 p.m.
More and more often, wild animals appear in Zhdanovic. According to local residents, a few days ago the elk went to one of the private plots, apparently to eat apples.
And a day later the animal ran out in front of a taxi at the highway exit. In addition, during the last month, moose (perhaps different) were spotted on the road at least twice more in different parts of the inhabited area.
Drivers should be especially careful on country roads and in areas near forests. Wild animals may suddenly appear on the road, especially at dusk.
