Stony Brook Deerpark
Stony Brook Deerpark (Kiravic: Ālkúrilnilæn Ɣôyutroa) is a game reserve in the form of an enclosed deer park located in County Coīnvra, District of Coīnvra. A rare example of a functioning game reserve surrounded by a thoroughly urban landscape, the reserve covers a continuous tract of land along both banks of the Stony Brook, enclosed by a system of fences, walls, and embankments. Formally owned by the Council of States, the park is maintained and administered by the Federal Fish & Game Service. Those areas of the park on the right bank of Stony Brook are open to the general public on weekends for non-hunting purposes, whereas the left bank (and the whole of the park on weekdays) is reserved for use by high-ranking federal officials, their guests, and a select group of permit-holder designated by the President of the Council of States.
