Travellers to Śląsk-Opolskie beware - pumas on the loose

I don,t have to go far to see the wildlife,,,got bats in my roof , deer and wild boar in the garden..and assorted stuff flying about in my trees , oh , and eagles flapping about overhead....

well Sean male deers (the big ones) can be dangerous in autumn (when they fight for the females)

Pics of Male and female Roe Deer (Sarna)
Roe Deer female is called koza :) Male is called kozioł or rogacz
Jeleń - in Poland this name goes to the Red Deer, though you can also say "jeleń" about other deer species

Yeah, female deers run away though. Male deers wouldn't need to do anything as I wouldn't be threatening them. Their antlers are dangerous but I wouldn't be afraid of them. Big cats yes.

I though koza was a goat

Hmm, Seanus, think it over, gay elephant may inflict a lot of pain to you.

So might a normal elephant ;)

True :) Koza is also a name for a species you know as a goat lol :) And you call female of KOZA - koza :DDD And male koza is called kozioł or cap :DDD

Wow, nothing like mixing up species of different animals. Byk is bull and deer, LOL

A normal one only with its trunk. And gay one also with its ........tusks. :):):)

Exactly - Polish language is tricky and full of surprises :P

I wish i could show you the video of the deer in my garden..turning around and looking at me when i shouted to them about twenty feet away....they just looked at me , then carried on eating...i guess they know i am not going to harm them....

Nope. Full of zasadzkas.

Yeah, they have that instinct that we are not gonna have a go at them.

Exactly :)

And lions will appear in the centre of Warsaw.

Well, as statues yes...

What if polish girls get tails and turn into tigers?

If?? Where were you that you don`t know it has already happened ??

I think i already met this girl....

The plural for the noun deer is deer, not deers. Such as the plural of the noun sheep is sheep, not sheeps.

Sorry, language is changing and I'm here to point that out. You will find 'deers' in some dictionaries. Some things change over time. For example, fish can be fishes and I've heard native speakers use it that way. English is so broad and flexible and if I write it naturally without feeling it as an error, it's probably right (without sounding smug I hope).

Next you'll be telling me that you spell humour as humor ;) ;) ;)

Go and check it in WikiAnswers.com, ask What do you call a deer in plural? I think you'll find the percentage answer quite staggering.

I know the consensus opinion but we don't have to stick to Stone-age traditions. I'd generally prefer deer as the plural as that's what I was taught. Then again, I don't always go with what I was taught :) :)

Ah that is where you got Pumas from earlier on the other thread, I see, I even googled it and could find nothing.


Fish is plural and singular but I thought that if you mean different species you can say "Fishes", different currencies "monies" and "peoples"?.

But you are right language changes and quickly.
I remember always being corrected on "eatable" and told it was "edible" but both are in the dictionaries.

Eatable and edible are slightly different. Eatable means able to be eaten whereas edible means it's a pretty naff food but you can somehow stomach it. Very similar though :)
