A friend of mine from the cites was visiting one winter day. I was feeding deer that year. And he was all OHHH and AHHH when the deer came into the feeders. I could see the old long nose doe was angry with the little ones trying to sneak feed. And I told him, watch that old doe beat up those little deer. He kind of smiled like he thought I was crazy. Until she raised up and kicked one of the little ones in the back. He told me he never knew deer were violent. I just hope he never met a buck in rut when they were in a bad mood.
