The astonishing video shows a deer attacking a woman and pinning her to the wall when she entered its herd’s enclosure.

Surveillance camera footage shows the animal continuously hitting the woman in the back, after she entered the enclosure to feed the herd on a breeding farm in the eastern Chinese province of Shandong.

In the clip, recorded at around 5:06pm on Monday, 18th December, the woman can be heard screaming at the deer after it reared up on its hind legs and started punching her with its front hooves.

She can then be heard calling for her husband’s help, saying: “Lao Xu, the deer is beating me! Lao Xu!”

However, despite her efforts to call her husband, he reportedly did not hear her, said media.

The animal halted and backed away just minutes later, after several other deer gathered around them.

The video became a massive hit among social media users after the husband posted it on China’s version of TikTok, Douyin, later that day.

Lao Xu said: “Today my wife entered the deer pen and was beaten by a doe.”

He then added: “I really didn’t hear it.”

Douyin user ‘Rainbow L’ said: “This deer is not scared of hitting the woman.”

Then ‘Little lucky guy’ commented: “I heard her screaming even in Guangdong, but her husband hasn’t heard her yet.”

And ‘No longer enter the world of mortals in the next life’ wrote: “It seems as if it wants to mate with the woman.”
