This is a very touching story My Dad had all kinds of bird feeders in his backyard & we lived next to the woods & we would have deer &squirrels in the yard this video reminds me of that😊
This brings back great memories. My mom was blind, the deer came right to her, bucks and does, and fed from her hand. The bucks even let her feel their horns so she could tell how big they were. Dad got dementia but he loved the deer. He wandered a lot and we'd lose him so we came up with a plan to sit him outside with a bucket of corn on his lap. Sometimes he's have 10 deer around him feeding from the bucket. As long as we kept corn in the bucket, we knew where dad was. Win win for him and the deer. So thank you man, you're doing good.
We would love to feed the deer that come in our yard like that, but are afraid they would start trusting all people and end up getting shot by the local hunters. But we do love seeing them in the yard, nibbling on our vegetation. We do feed the raccoons who come up to the patio every night. So cute!
The problem is Devil runs the world. He is lier and murderer. His style is deception and violence. That's why we've got the Gospel about the God's kingdom. Jehovah would put everything in order. The dead will be resurected and we'll meet our beloved ones again! :-)
I have the same mindset, lol. I always try my best not to let wild animals trust us humans, no matter how I love them deep down. Just in case they meet bad people.
I feed my nine every afternoon. But usually not by hand although some of almost insisted on it. They know my voice and when I call them they come out of the brush for dinner.
He's a hunter which means he cares about their health and having a healthy population. That poor deer ribs are showing and won't make it through winter without some help.
We had a German shepherd dog that deer came to. After dog brought deer into camp we kids fed deer like this. In Montana snow so deep, bread store had deer bread bags of day old food for deer. You signs a pledge not to eat food ourselves, but give it to deer. I've got pictures of us standing in herds of deer eating our bread handouts!
Love the critters by teaching them to fear humans! (It's hard to resist the instant gratification of showing one that you, personally, are friendly; but as a group, our human species is treacherous. Wild animals need to never forget this. :^/ )
Reality: Our farm in SE Wisconsin was covered with corn, we planted soybeans too but the deer always preferred corn over beans, a lot of fruit trees so apples on the ground, acorns everywhere, a big garden we had to fence off to keep the litte freeloaders out of that buffet, the rabits too, so much abundance they would never come to us looking for a handout. They lived in a smorgasboard🤣 They were huge and healthy and we hunted them. I never once even found a tick on any of them, they were healthy beautiful corn fed deer and we had a lot of them. Taking 2 of them a year for our food kept everything in balance and corn fed venison is tasty, they even had fat on them from the corn. We had coyotes that would get a few large does every year; I would find complete deer skeletons just bones 100% intact picked apart by all the predators with fresh blood in the snow, nothing but bare bones. The coyotes ate most of it, but the other critters and birds would pick the bones clean. I will say this, I heard sounds at night of an animals screaming and I mean blood curling screaming when it was being killed and eaten alive by another animal. Mother Nature plays hardball in the wild. It ain't a Disney fantasy out there.
With its ribs showing so dramatically,....I hope that this poor creature does not have Chronic Wasting Disease!! They have been seeing a lot of this, this year, in the deer population!!!🤔🤔🤔🤔
As much as I like having wild animals - raccoons, possum, deer, crows, hawks, groundhogs, feral cats and, yes, even foxes &c - wandering thru my yard, I always try to remember that these are wild animals. They are not pets. They are not domesticated beasts that crave or feel good about humans. They are wild animals & thus are just as likely to see humans as food outright as they see us as potential sources of occasional treats or providing food during tough times. They will just as easily bite or stomp you as accept food from you. They are wild. Undomesticable. Animals.
Beautiful encounter with God's beautiful creatures! I rather see them like this than hit by darn vehicles! But, can anyone see what resembles a male Lion head, next to that mondo grass?! Naturally the Lion would be too big to be hiding there. It looks like it's looking at the deer. See if you see it?!
During the Great Depression deer were hunted to near extinction. Did you know that? Well, those insane, insensitive cowards were keeping their families alive. Did you know that? When the next END Depression arrives (coming soon) what will you do? Do you have a plan?
I think Judy, is Rudy and they've been raised to fear first and accept second, we're raised to accept first and fear of last, lately no one is in fear or acceptance, it's all about the apostasy of Americans!
The number of US patriots who would prefer to deliver righteous gunnishment from the Lord Above is far greater. Who can blame the deer for her hesitancy?
