A group of Ezo deer crossing the crosswalk. The person in front is looking left and right as he crosses the street 😆 However, this is a busy intersection so drivers please be careful. Oh, I was eating cream puffs in the Seven-Eleven parking lot. #Waiting for customers #I'm not slacking

The posted video shows a herd of Ezo deer crossing the road! What's even more surprising is that the leading Ezo deer carefully checks both sides before starting to cross. This behavior, which seems to be following the traffic rules, has attracted the attention of many people.

The Ezo deer behind him looks cautiously from side to side.

Mayumi Sato (Mayutan), who lives in Kushiro, Hokkaido, witnessed this scene in the parking lot of a convenience store during her break from work. She said, "I took this photo while I was eating a cream puff and waiting for customers," and added a humorous comment to the post, "#Waiting for customers #I'm not slacking off." Commenters expressed surprise, saying, "That's so amazing," "They're all there," and "It's funny how they keep looking left and right."

When driving in Hokkaido, be careful of wild animals jumping out into the road!

By the way, Kushiro City, located in the eastern part of Hokkaido, where the post was posted, is rich in nature and it is not uncommon to see Ezo deer even in urban areas. Mayutan had previously encountered an Ezo deer crossing a road.

While it's heartwarming to see a herd of Ezo deer crossing the road, it also comes with the risk of car accidents. Please keep this in mind when driving in Hokkaido, but this post was heartwarming and a sight unique to Hokkaido.
