It could probably only happen here in the UK !
Chalky, a white stag who lives on the Brookfield Plantation on the outskirts of Corby , has indeed got his own dedicated Facebook page called ‘Save Chalky and his Brookfield Plantation friends’.
Why ‘Save Chalky’? you may ask.
Because the Brookfield Plantation is under threat from a ‘resource recovery park’ to accompany a gasification plant.
To create this industrial park, 50 hectares (approx) of trees – home to Chalky and his herd – will be destroyed.
To raise awareness of the cause to save the woodland, this Facebook page was created.
Around 300 local people have also recently held a peaceful demonstration in Corby Town Centre where a petition opposing the development – containing over 1000 names – was delivered to councillors at The Corby Cube.

Or Chalky’s facebook page – ‘Save Chalky and his Brookfield Plantation friends’ http://en-gb.facebook.com/pages/Save-Chalky-and-his-Brookfield-Plantation-friends/148911661936570
Please ‘like’ and ‘share’ and tell all your friends! Many thanks, Hx
