I went to set out my cam yesterday. Parked on the road and walked to my spot. When I got there I looked around and saw a doe standing there looking at me. I was real still for a second then I walked toward her. She didn't move. I walked closer and reached out and touched her nose. At this point I noticed that she had an reflective orange dog collar around her neck. I petted her and rubbed her back and she seemed to like it. I took the collar off of her then had second thoughts and put it back on. I tried to get her to come over to the game cam, left my digital at the house, but she wouldn't go over there. I petted her and visited for a little while wondering what to do as it started to rain. I headed back to the truck I looked over to where she was standing but didn't see her. I looked behind me and there she was following me. She followed me all the way out. Running around like a puppy. She would run ahead, kicking her heels, then come right back and brush up against me. She seemed really glad to see me. By then it was poreing down rain with lightening. When I got to the truck and started driving off she followed me down the rad a ways then stoped and started grazing. I asked a few of the people that lived in the area but none of them new anyone that had a pet deer. Called the game warden and he said someone probably raised her from a fawn then put her out when she got to big. She looked to be about a year old, no ticks and basically healthy. I figure she doesn't have a chance. I have a lot of emotions about this incident, ranging from aggravation to simpathy and even feel a friendship towards the deer. It's one of those things thats under my skin but out of my hands.
