If you live neer woods were there is a deer population or even if there isn't they make great pets once you have hand raised them if you have dogs they will become just like the dogs, we had a doe that we raised and she hung around her whole life no pens or anything to keep her in. During the rut every year she would get bread and had 4 fawns that we know of, we tried not mess with her fawns and they all left on their own after about a year.
