Good day,
Would you please advise what it is meant by "walk in parallel" in this text:
Stags roar, walk in parallel and shove one another with their outsized antlers. The powerful blows dealt can result in injury and death.

I know phrase "in parallel" only in the meaning "simultaneously" or "to move side by side". But what sense for fighting deers to walk simultaneously or side by side. My dictionaries can't help me by showing any different meaning of the phrase.
Thank you.
