Poof Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 And I’m not gonna talk about that I wanna talk about deer. Apparently there’s hella animals in suburban neighborhoods. Coyotes, wild dogs, deer, etc. the last 3 nights I saw deer. The first night I saw a herd of 9 mf deer. There were so many and I got so close before they ran off that I could smell them. that’s what I wanna talk about. All these deer I’ve seen have let me get super close and I’m just jogging down the street in reflective gear out in the open. This has led me to believe there’s no bragging rights in hunting deer. Like if I had a javelin and learned how to throw it for like a week I bet I could kill one of these mfs. And if I had that RPK pshhhhh I always thought to be a hunter there had to be some kind of forest stalking skill or stealth going on but I’m out there crunching snow and smacking my feet against the pavement in minimalist running shoes. They don’t give a fuck until I’m right up on them. now I know why every guy on naked and afraid whose like all confident at the beginning bc he’s a “hunter” doesn’t catch anything then gets really hungry then thanks the hippy girl for sharing the crayfish she caught in the river in the basket she weaved. It’s bc these guys are just hanging out until there’s a deer then pulling the trigger. I get what hunting is now 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhilosipherStoned Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Usually in open spots like suburban neighborhoods deer don't fair so well. Could be doe letting you get close on purpose while their fawns run somewhere to hide. I've had does let me walk right up to them plenty of times only to hear little rustling sounds in the brush behind her going the opposite direction. There's also the possibility some dumbass is feeding them for their tik tok video, and the deer you are seeing are more or less someones outside pets at this point. Watching someone expecting all deer just to run attempting to spear hunt a proper buck sounds fun though I'm not gonna lie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If u really wanna be anal tho spears are what ppl used to hunt bears w/ before guns since impaling them on their own charging force is your only hope Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of the 9 had big antlers is that a buck? idc what you say you’re not going to convince me the deer is a cunning animal to hunt. Or that modern hunting makes you any more of a jungle man. Seriously all the hunters in naked and afraid show of their gun collections and just go hungry bc all they know how to do is walk around w/a gun 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I remember deer in America don't really have natural predators so they don't see anything as dangerous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comparing deer with the amount of human contact deer living near a suburban area have to deer in any secluded area is stupid is all I was saying. Same goes for any wild animal. Also I don't blame you for saying as much after encountering a few chill deer, but I doubt you'd be talking that big if you encountered a territorial buck that wants to bring the fight to you. I'm not someone who views hitting a deer as a badge of honor either. That'd just be dinner for me.

Bucks will charge you All in rebuttal to my claim that it’s easy to get close to deer. hmmm 🤔 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You seem to think all deer operate through skynet, and arent capable of a large variety of responses due to species evolution, and environmental conditioning. 3. Deer are pretty much all out of rutting season right now. 4.This post and your last one are what a rebuttal looks like not my last addition. I just provided some explanations for the behavior you described because it wasn't surprising to me. 😷 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really don't care much about deer or hunting them, but no I don't need google to tell me when rutting season is or list out the changes in behavior AND PHYSIOLOGY FOR A BUCK that can be displayed in and out of it.
