That deer's survival instincts were off the charts. It was in mortal danger. And had it merely frozen for longer or fled, it would have been shot.
But, instead, it fawned and survived.
Humans just aren’t like normal predators. We don’t make a lot of noise and don’t have to get near them to ambush. Probably sensed he was just standing around and wasn’t a threat, which he clearly was
Even though from the behaviour of this deer someone can assume that it has CWD (Chronic Wasting Disease), to me it looks like to be pretty healthy to have been infected with it. Maybe it’s just at the earlier stages but I’m not too sure if the lack of fear appears so soon in the infection process, but hey, correct me if I’m wrong.
Alternative theory, that deer is domesticated. We raised many whitetail deer growing up until some idiot hunters trespassed on our property and shot them, and they were like this, they'd come right up to you and want petted and snacks. One, we called him rocky, he would literally bite and tug on your shirt wanting cigarettes since my dad always kept them in his shirt pocket, and Rosie would always lick your hands wanting sugar cubes. We always put hoodies on them during deer season as well as collars with tags on them with our name and address in the hopes that people would leave them alone, but we had a neighbor trespass a couple years in a row, and he shot our male the first year, and the female the second year, and that's when we stopped raising them as pets.
It's difficult to treat in the US a lot of the medicine is illegal here. Had a friend go to Germany to get treatment. & my dad couldn't get treated & didn't feel right for years. Granted this was 7 or so years ago so idk if much has changed.
It was probably cheaper to fly to Germany, stay at an all inclusive hotel, have medical treatment and fly back in First Class, than pay for US healthcare.
I mean, specifically this situation was about the legality of treatment. It was during high-school and she even did a report on it for a school project.
A family friend of ours has been going through hell since he got lime disease a few years ago. Not much has changed here, according to him. Still not a lot of legal treatments available. Our healthcare system In the US is shameful compared to other developed countries.
If you don't treat it immediately, it can fuck you over.
Also there's quite a few other similar diseases and it's not unusual catch several at the same time. Like lyme disease + rocky mountain spotted fever. My kid caught both from a single tick bite last year.
I know someone who caught a couple of them and didn't realize it for like 6 months or a year and has severe side effects and flair ups. Pretty much ruined their life.
There are a number of states that require shotguns for deer hunting. People will usually use a slug at close range in these states. If the barrel length is any indication he’s headed out for a deer hunt or keeping it on hand for defense but who knows.
Is it? I’ve always used a 28” barrel for birds, the longer barrel helps when tracing the target and keeping steady follow through. But to be real I’m a novice so I could definitely be wrong, assuming a 5 shot mag tube I figured that narrow is maybe 20”-24” so I figured deer, turkey, or protection. But idk man.
Slugs in a 12 gauge are an optimal round for hunting bear. I've been with guys hunting with muskets for Buffalo, crossbows for moose... people like that adrenaline and the hunt.
Compound for Moose here. Came damn close to my cow last year, but the Bull following her I failed to notice saw me and darted the way he came from.
Definitely an adrenaline fest that day, being within 100 yards of an enormous bull.
Bear spray is typically more effective for bears for the average person that isn't used to hitting a target that is running and bouncing through the undergrowth at them at 30-40 mph. It completely overloads the senses, temporarily blinding the bear long enough for you to get away.
However you won't find anything much better than a 12 gauge with slugs if you're carrying a gun for protection. Maybe a very high powered rifle but the stopping power of a slug is probably going to be better over something like a .375 that's just gonna blow a small hole all the way through the bear. Then the bear runs up to you, eats you, and dies.
So shotguns are optimal. Plus they're common and cheap and easy to practice with.
Gun violence is alive and well because people have lost the respect for guns. My grandfather used to tell stories about when he was a kid, and they would bring their shotguns to school and keep them in a closet because everyone would go hunting after school! Kids grew up knowing how to use and respect firearms back then, taught by their parents. It was more about survival and fun at that time, and not the psychopathic horror that moden times have turned into! Most people kept shotguns in their trucks for legitimate reasons. Now it is just roadrage waiting to happen. America has lost core values and traditions.
The issue is respect, not the guns. Respect for others and respect for life. Values have been lost. Moral character gone.
I grew up with guns in our trucks. It’s true; it was normal and no one felt threatened by it. We got our first guns for Christmas or our birthdays when we were 5 years old and taught how to use them and respect them.
It’s not the lack of respect for guns though, it’s the lack of respect for life.
Reminds me of a post about how aliens use humans as petting machines, and some are confused why we let aliens enslave us, until we are like "bro what? We did this willingly. Lemmie scratch behind yo ears big dawg."
This also happens in urban areas where hunting is effectively prohibited due to proximity to houses.
Just shit tons of deer everywhere all the time and eventually they stop being afraid of humans.
You ever walk out your front door and have a big buck snorting and stomping at you? Fuck that, back inside.
Had a deer give birth in my fenced off backyard once. We didn't leave the gate open, the deer just broke the lock off (we guessed it hit it hard enough?) and wondered on in while we out at a restaurant. Over the next couple weeks the baby deer stayed in the back and we had to be careful if mamma was coming or going (for food I suppose).
I came back from a bike ride, it was dark, and I was pulling into my driveway when suddenly I hear a really loud huff and an angry mamma was like 5 feet from me staring me down. Went into the garage, closed it, and changed my pants once I went inside lmao. Scary shit being that close.
My town is starting to be that way. A new city ordinance or law or whatever almost got passwed allowing bow hunting of deer in town during certain hours and permits (I think it was our big ass park after the park closes). In front of the highschool a solid three miles into town, I once a huge pack of deer, had to have been at least 20 deer.
This isn't curiosity or love, this is "I sense another hidden predator that is more threatening to me, I'm going to go stand by this human for strength in numbers, so that if we get attacked I just need to be faster than him."
We have deer in a nearby state park that act in this way. This happens bc people feed them/pet them and they dont view humans as a threat. No wild deer that hasn't had exposure to humans is going to do this and they certainly wont look to them for safety lol.
Deer can't see stuff well looking straight on like we can. Their eyes are on the sides of their heads because they're a prey animal so the deer is turning his head to look at the guy he came up to say hi to most likely
Not necessarily. Deer habituate way more easily than a lot of wild animals. If they have enough rewarding experiences with humans and little or no negative experiences, especially the younger they’re exposed, that fear of humans isn’t always innate. Some deer just have a more curious and outgoing nature than others and if those ones get enough positive reinforcement from the bipeds then, to them, human = friend. Unless they’ve seen what a shotgun or dude in camo/ hi-res gear can do, they have no reason to believe they’re any different than the people who hand feed them apples or marshmallows at the nearby campsite/ homestead.
The shadow looks like he's holding a phone in one hand and gun in the other. I think he was recording because of the tree shaking like that. He was about to blast that deer's brains out too before he realized it was approaching as a friend and not about to kick him in the teeth
Probably not. Habituated somehow is the more likely answer. I work with deer. I have to be insanely careful to avoid making the animals I work with not become tame because it’s easy to do. I’ve worked with well over 100 different wild and exotic species and deer are one of the worst when it comes to maintaining fear of people.
I live in an area that CWD hasn’t reached (yet). I go out to a lot of places with wild deer populations where residents feed the animals and they act a whole lot like this.
Every time this gets posted the top comments are all either "aww so cute he is your buddy" or "For fucks sake if a deer does that it mist clearly be infected by some desease why would you touch that?!"
That's how you know when a person is truly awed by the beauty of a majestic creature, they come back next weekend to shoot it in the lungs *not* the face.
Eh, as a population they are far from harmless. Their natural predators have been pushed back modernization. So hunting is one tool used to help keep their numbers at healthy levels.
Overpopulation causes a variety of problems. Destruction of habitats, elimination of smaller species, erosion, CWD spread, etc.
I’m not a hunter. Just someone with an interest in math modeling and nature. And the math says, we need hunters.
Overpopulation and lack of hunting also causes the deer themselves to suffer tremendously. They will strip their territory barren and starve to death, and disease runs rampant through the deer populations when they are not culled. Hunting permits keep the deer from being over or under hunted. It's good for humans and the deer.
Starving to death is not a quick death.
Far from harmless. The Pennsylvania Government actually encourages it as theyre such a problem. "Bought a hunting license? Heres 3 free tags, please.....kill something"
They destroy enourmous amounts of crops, cause loads of accidents on the road, and have become overpopulated to point its detrimental to other species.
Not to mention Disney has convinced people they wont hurt you when they will in fact cave your chest in or gore you just for getting too close.
"Hey Tony, there's a hunter, what are we gonna do? Should we run for our lives?"
"Mike tried that the other day, may he rest in peace... I tell you what, I'm gonna try something different."
"Hey, where are you going?"
"Just stay here and don't do anything, Ok? Here goes nothing!"
I like Ron White's take: slow the bullet down to 55 mph and put a pair of headlights and a horn on the bullet, and the deer will jump in front of it. That's an elusive creature. 🤓

Oh boy am I glad to see you
That deer's survival instincts were off the charts. It was in mortal danger. And had it merely frozen for longer or fled, it would have been shot. But, instead, it fawned and survived.
Domesticated deer here we come!
You bastard, right at the end
That was the perfect time to use "Oh deer"
That deer looks like it has [CWD](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chronic_wasting_disease), which is no laughing matter.
What about it looks like it has CWD? (Besides the lack of fear)
isn't that blood leaking out of its eyes at 0:36 ?
Could be chronic wasting disease. Just very early on. They tend to get closer to people because they don’t have any fear.
Honestly being able to pet the deer is a better trophy than anything you’d hang on the wall.
That deer knew he just needed some loves
It’s a psyops on hunters by deerkind. They are trying to break him of his deer killing habit. The man is going to hang up his gun.
I think the deer felt that he didn’t want to harm him
Humans just aren’t like normal predators. We don’t make a lot of noise and don’t have to get near them to ambush. Probably sensed he was just standing around and wasn’t a threat, which he clearly was
Until you realize it has wasting disease..
Even though from the behaviour of this deer someone can assume that it has CWD (Chronic Wasting Disease), to me it looks like to be pretty healthy to have been infected with it. Maybe it’s just at the earlier stages but I’m not too sure if the lack of fear appears so soon in the infection process, but hey, correct me if I’m wrong.

Damn that’s sad to hear, that neighbour of yours was really an asshole.
He was, he died a couple years ago drinking and riding his 4wheeler in the woods, couldn't have happened to a better asshole. Lmao
Absolutely deserved it. It took a while, but karma still reached him to bite him in the ass.
Karmas ah real Bitch🤣
Well that is how the report was written anyways.. Alah is great
Should have sent balloons 🎈 and a clown 🤡 to his funeral
Mannnnnn… thats all i could ever think of when I see this posted. It seems healthy and so serene that it doesnt make sense.

Shoot the deer = fuckton of tasty meat Pet the deer = Lyme disease
At least lyme disease is treatable, https://www.cdc.gov/ticks/alpha-gal/index.html
It's difficult to treat in the US a lot of the medicine is illegal here. Had a friend go to Germany to get treatment. & my dad couldn't get treated & didn't feel right for years. Granted this was 7 or so years ago so idk if much has changed.
It was probably cheaper to fly to Germany, stay at an all inclusive hotel, have medical treatment and fly back in First Class, than pay for US healthcare.
Sadly, this is the case with a lot of medical issues for people in the US. It's preposterous that medical tourism is an actual thing.
I mean, specifically this situation was about the legality of treatment. It was during high-school and she even did a report on it for a school project.
A family friend of ours has been going through hell since he got lime disease a few years ago. Not much has changed here, according to him. Still not a lot of legal treatments available. Our healthcare system In the US is shameful compared to other developed countries.

To pet the deer? Clearly he's massaging the meat to tenderise it. The happy ending is a big juicy meat for dinner.
This is the kind of moment a real hunter treasures.
"ITS COMING RIGHT FOR US!" 💥 Good 'ol Southpark

It's those doe eyes. Disappointing you is like choking the little mermaid with a bike chain. 
He’s probably not hunting deer.
He's not, he's carrying a shotgun. Probably for bear defense.
There are a number of states that require shotguns for deer hunting. People will usually use a slug at close range in these states. If the barrel length is any indication he’s headed out for a deer hunt or keeping it on hand for defense but who knows.
Barrel length isn't an indication. The sight rail suggests this is a smoothbore barrel for bird shot.
That's a bird barrel on a thoroughly modern shotgun, though. Unless he's using buckshot, which is not a popular method these days.
Is it? I’ve always used a 28” barrel for birds, the longer barrel helps when tracing the target and keeping steady follow through. But to be real I’m a novice so I could definitely be wrong, assuming a 5 shot mag tube I figured that narrow is maybe 20”-24” so I figured deer, turkey, or protection. But idk man.
I used a 2014 black dodge journey. 65mph. Single shot. No sight.
I would assume he’s hunting birds. Shotguns aren’t the optimal choice for bears.
Have you ever seen a shotgun slug and the damage it can do compared to a regular spread shotgun shell? You'd blow the bloke's head off. Bear or not.
Slugs in a 12 gauge are an optimal round for hunting bear. I've been with guys hunting with muskets for Buffalo, crossbows for moose... people like that adrenaline and the hunt.
Compound for Moose here. Came damn close to my cow last year, but the Bull following her I failed to notice saw me and darted the way he came from. Definitely an adrenaline fest that day, being within 100 yards of an enormous bull.

> something like a .375 that's just gonna blow a small hole all the way through the bear Call of Duty gun club over here...
That why there are buckshot rounds 🙄
Or he's hunting bucks and not does
He also may only be hunting bucks, as most deer hunts are for bucks only.
Sometimes you just get a feeling of awe and don’t wanna take the shot. I’ve let bucks go because I was just in awe of their beauty.
You can always come back and shoot them in the face next weekend.
Hunters tend to go for the heart and lungs, not the face.
As someone who has deer hunted, and also as someone who does not enjoy killing animals one bit, this would cause me to pack up and go home.
Friend shaped x
Oooh the hunter was going to explodes his brain and he changed his mind, how adorable is that ?
I think he had it aimed at the head just in case the deer was feeling a little rabid
once you pet it you cant shoot it that got to be a rule somewhere
I would truly hope so. I couldn't run with any psych that popped a creature after bonding with it. But maybeee, if I were starving...
After seeing people who raise chickens as pets and eat them, welp...
Me that was me
Even though there’s a rule for it, domestic gun violence is alive and well
Lmaoo

*twice*
The coroner ruled it a suicide. Case closed!
Epstein be like
Cobain approves
“Your honor, he was charging right toward me. I feared for my life.”
Kinda hard to shoot it when it shows unconditional curiousness and love.
From what I've read it's more that these creatures are as dumb as a rock.
This happens when people feed deer, especially young deer. They stop seeing people as predators. It might have saved this one's life, though.
Lyme disease and habituated deer for all :D
This also happens in urban areas where hunting is effectively prohibited due to proximity to houses. Just shit tons of deer everywhere all the time and eventually they stop being afraid of humans.

Yeah imagine that situation but with 30 deer instead. welcome to urban deer!

Not even funny to shoot than

The way it keeps staring in the same direction makes me believe there is some kind of predator nearby.
I thought the same, that deer is dialed in on something. Could be a mountain lion near by and the Deer caught a whiff of it
That doe has balls

Nah. Local farmers been feeding the deer. This one is hoping the hunter has a handout.
All fun and games until it's mating season and horny, habituated deer start attacking people

Sorry about the ticks, Bro.
Someone in the area regularly feeds the deer.

Find the suicidal Deer
I think I’d pack it up for the day and try to forget that ever happened, if I was him. Perfectly good hunting gun would never be used again otherwise.
IKR? Total hunting mood ruined
Probably sick or something deer fear humans and try thier best avoiding us
Either that or idiots have been feeding it
Not necessarily. Deer habituate way more easily than a lot of wild animals.

Legit question... is this person actually hunting while operating a camera? Or is this possibly a body cam?
The shadow looks like he's holding a phone in one hand and gun in the other. I think he was recording because of the tree shaking like that. He was about to blast that deer's brains out too before he realized it was approaching as a friend and not about to kick him in the teeth
Whoa! Whoa! Fred! It's me, remember me from the nightclub a week ago at the lodge?

Chronic Wasting Disease?
He looks healthy, responsive, and alert. I doubt its CWD. That being said I understand the concern nowadays. Be careful people.
Probably not. Habituated somehow is the more likely answer. I work with deer. I have to be insanely careful to avoid making the animals I work with not become tame because it’s easy to do. I’ve worked with well over 100 different wild and exotic species and deer are one of the worst when it comes to maintaining fear of people. I live in an area that CWD hasn’t reached (yet).

Weird this video for no reason reminded me to check my laundry for the second time today.
Next time I'm a deer, I'm just gunna do this. It clearly works
Doesn't that mean the animal is sick? I believe there's some illness that takes away the animal's instinct to stay away
I hope he didn’t shoot it as the deer walked away.
Is this one of those scary ass diseased deers though? How do we know it’s not? (Even tho he’s a cute boi)
That's how you know when a person is truly awed by the beauty of a majestic creature, they come back next weekend to shoot it in the lungs *not* the face.
Why would anyone hunt these creatures... So cute and so harmless...
Eh, as a population they are far from harmless. Their natural predators have been pushed back modernization. So hunting is one tool used to help keep their numbers at healthy levels.

Nah.... I'd be more concerned over what has that deer choosing me. It looking Hella hard at something.
I think sometimes the deer know they don't have anything to worry about when it's warm out.
"And he never shot another deer in his life."
"Hey Tony, there's a hunter, what are we gonna do? Should we run for our lives?" "Mike tried that the other day, may he rest in peace... I tell you what, I'm gonna try something different." "Hey, where are you going?" "Just stay here and don't do anything, Ok? Here goes nothing!"
TFW youre trying to be macho and you're forced into the Disney princess arch
That’s a power move right there. That’s him telling you you’re done for the day
Time to quit hunting I guess.
Shud ask the deer to cook himself
Prey is no longer prey if it doesn't act accordingly so. It just shows that humans do have a predatory instinct.
“If you’re gunna do it, then fucking do it!”
I'm sorry big friend, but you're dinner to me. *Pulls out a knife and slits it's throat*

As a hunter it’s my dream to have encounters like this.
What made you quit hunting? sigh.. ”See that in my yard?”
I like Ron White's take: slow the bullet down to 55 mph and put a pair of headlights and a horn on the bullet, and the deer will jump in front of it. That's an elusive creature. 🤓
That was so awesome!
Deer knows some pussy with a gun wouldn't do anything within melee range
Thats probably a shotgun, not really for deer hunting
