Maybe they should be properly domesticated and turned into farm animals. The humans did know how to do it some 10000 years ago, but seem to have forgotten.

While we're at it, let's turn them into housepets too! Put a leash on them, train them to catch a frisbee, and let them romp around the house with the kids.

There's a place just north of Kansas City, between Liberty and Excelcior Springs, where someone's raising some sort of antlered critters... I'm not sure what they are. I think that they're too small for elk or caribou, so they may be reindeer. Definately NOT your typical deer, like Whitetail or Mule Deer.

I saw The Yearling a few weeks back and things didn't turn out as planned.

Yeah, maybe we could teach them to pull sleds and deliver toys...

Actually, it could become a major commuter alternative to driving the SUV or mini-van inside the same suburb to run 100 errands.

That would be harder than worth it.

Have you ever tried to keep deer out of a fenced garden?
