Deer Aren't Pets
Posted by DDH Staff
What happens when suburbanites lose touch with any meaningful understanding of deer and deer behavior? In northern Florida, at least, they're taking them home as pets.
But there's one problem: While these semi-tame surburban deer might look cute and approachable while young, eventually they grow up. And a deer's antlers and hooves can quickly become dangerous weapons which can inflict serious harm to anyone getting in the deer's way. Factor in a buck's "moody" disposition as his juices start flowing ramping up to the rut, and many are finding out the hard way that white-tailed deer are meant to be man's best game animal -- not his best friend.
