Camping in the Midwest, it’s not uncommon to wake up in the morning and have a few deer laying around the fire pit or munching on leaves at the edge of the campground.

Anyone who knows about being out in the woods, knows you shoo them away and never touch or approach them. They’re wild animals and can seriously injure you if they get spooked and choose to fight. But plenty of idiots will approach them and feed them apple slices and other natural snacks.

I'm convinced that Midwest white tail want to die. Black tail in Oregon take three days to cross a road.
