I've never read or heard that. What you will hear is that they can die with a stomach full of corn. They need more than just corn to survive. But, this usually only comes into play during extremely rough winter conditions where the deer can't get around to get natural browse, and people feed them loads of corn. As long as the deer have their free choice of food, they know how to survive. They've been making it in farm country for years.
