Another deer sighting in inner Sydney - Sydney Morning Herald

Motorists have been advised to exercise caution after a deer was spotted at Pyrmont, in inner Sydney, early on Thursday morning.

Police received a call at 5.25am reporting a deer in the Anzac Bridge breakdown lane at the Allen Street off-ramp.

After an unsuccessful attempt to contain the deer in the region, police have sought specialist assistance from the RSPCA, a spokesperson said.

A caller to Ben Fordham's breakfast show on 2GB said he witnessed a van bump the deer on Allen Street.

Earlier in the morning, the deer had been reported by a caller to Luke Grant's show on 2GB, who said he had seen the animal around Harris Street.

The Transport Management Centre said it was urging motorists to exercise caution, although there were no lane closures in place.

A spokesperson said its crews were aware the deer had been moving in the Harris Street and Allen Street area.

"It was last seen jumping a fence and hasn't been seen since," they said.

Police asked members of the public to be on the lookout for the deer, advising people to call triple zero if they see the animal and not approach it themselves.

They also advised local residents who might be walking in the area to keep their dogs on a leash.

It comes after two deer were spotted in Sydney's inner west earlier this month.

The deer were spotted running through Leichhardt, Annandale and Balmain by multiple members of the public.

One of the deer was euthanised by the RSPCA after it was deemed to be in ill health having become distressed in the backyard of a Leichhardt unit complex. However, the other deer remained on the loose.
