Two stags were spotted by a camera trap bathing in a water puddle in a Thai forest.
Footage shows the antlered creatures playfully rolling around in the water at the Si Phang Nga National Park in Phang Nga province, Thailand, at around 12:30am on September 1.
Staff said the small pool was frequently used as a 'jacuzzi' by the forest animals.
Thailand is home to several deer species like the large Sambar deer and the endangered Eld's deer. They are found across wildlife sanctuaries such as the Khao Yai National Park and Huai Kha Khaeng Wildlife Sanctuary. However, the deer are under pressure from habitat loss and human encroachment.
Conservation efforts include animal protection laws and habitat restoration to protect the biodiversity of the country's woodlands.
