If you’d like to be on or off this Outdoors/Rural/wildlife/hunting/hiking/backpacking/National Parks/animals list please FR mail me. And ping me is you see articles of interest.

Deer are occasional meat eaters, no surprise they eat eggs. And baby birds are cute and probably tasty, like baby deer.

There’s a solution for this: a well-aimed gun and some deer-dressing knives. Venison for dinner!

In the winter, deer will eat plants that are not palatable and even somewhat poisonous. No surprise here.

Well... I used to have a bunny, and I caught him raiding the cat food. It is not unheard-of for herbivores to eat the occasional meat meal.

Deer are members of the goat family. Goats eat most anything.

Not surprised.

In our part of Northern Ca., we have Columbian Blacktail deer.

In the past few years these deer are more aggressive and are eating things their ancestors never ate.

During this time period, our quail population has gone from several large covies to a small group.

Makes one wonder if our deer are causing the decrease
In our quail population.

In a former life I was a biologist at a national park. Some fellow biologists were doing some bird sampling with mist nets. Each morning they would check the nets, but only found several masses of goo in the nets. No birds. One day they spotted the culprits. Deer would come up and find the birds caught in the nets and eat them, leaving a gooey mess behind.

This article is racist. Imagine if we wrote “Black-tailed deer” eat quail eggs.

Oh the horror of it all!

News flash: Dan Quail had no comment on this story!

There was a thread here years ago about deer eating fish. If i remember correctly, it was somewhere in Michigan.
