In Winterthur, Switzerland, a unique operation unfolded as 120 city employees worked to drive deer out of the Rosenberg Cemetery.

The animals had been feasting on grave decorations and plants, causing distress to grieving visitors.

Despite attempts to deter the deer with natural repellents, the city resorted to a calm, coordinated effort to guide the animals back to the nearby Lindberg Forest.

The operation was designed to avoid stressing the deer, ensuring their safety.

While the cemetery's fence has been repaired, officials acknowledge that keeping the deer out permanently is unlikely.

The cemetery remains an attractive spot for the animals due to its peaceful environment and lack of predators.

Authorities aim to strike a balance, protecting the plants while allowing occasional deer sightings, which some visitors find comforting.
