:’) Stone Age peoples used to keep wild deer herded up for times when they wanted steaks, and may even have milked ‘em. About 8000 years ago a preceramic cultural group left mainland Near East for Cyprus (that settlement is known, their previous location is unknown) and took mainland species with them, including local deer.

Ohhhh; so they were herdsmen & ranchers; not farmers! ;-)

Having milked *tame* goats, no way would I try to milk a *wild* deer.
