Hey gents, found and interesting video from and archive file from CFPL London. It took place in 1962 and showed Royals at Pinery Provincial Park doing a deer census.
I wondered if any of you old timers remember this and could explain exactly how it was done. Seems like a strange job for Royals to be doing, but then again a lot of stuff we did could be considered strange.
