Also: I like this guy's green door but he's a fucking prick. One time he yelled at me for letting my dog pee in his yard. Fuck you green door guy.

Also also: the deer peed in his yard as I drove away

That makes you a prick, not him.

I have a trail cam video of one deer eating the entrails of another deer that I shot. He ate that ass.

Ehhh entrails is ass adjacent, but not really ass. Also, I hope they were just entrails from you processing the meat, and not, like, an entire carcass you wasted

Yeah, I harvested the meat. When I field dress a deer, I take out everything from the trachea to the rectum (literal asshole included). Heart and liver are edible if healthy and intact, everything else is left for scavengers.

You could try to distract them with oats and corn but they'll probably just bring their friends.

My neighbors host a veritable wildlife buffet in their garden. They regularly have geese, ducks, turkeys, and, of course, deer. There's about 20 bird feeders plus corn, peanuts, fruit/veggie scraps, etc.

The deer still eat my plants. Gotta get the fresh greens, I guess.

The national parks were able to prevent overgrazing by introducing wolves, have you considered that as an option? /joke

Yes, my proposal was not popular at city council. I am the man who cried deer

I love deers. Wouldn’t a fence solve that issue?

too_high_for_this@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 104d

Absolutely not. Deer can easily jump over a six foot fence.
