actually its perfectly legal to "feed" the deer, you just can bait, so in other words you cant hunt within like 1 mile of the feeders or if you take the food away you cant hunt thereafter 10 days or sumtin like that.
LI must have it's own set of laws.

Let me know where you feed and I'll be sure to contact your local DEC rep to slap you with your $250.00 fine and i'll bake you a cake with a file for your 15 day per violation jail term.
