I love deer on every level, and am generally happy to see them where I live. Except for this-- that they can carry deer ticks.
Which for a person already disabled, would pretty much be curtains. But even for the completely healthy, getting Lyme Disease is generally a complete disaster.
We have a small herd of deer that comes through our yard and we leave corn out in the winter and in the summer fill up a boulder that was carved out like a bowl over many years of sitting in a creek.
We have names for a few of them
round ear (she has round ears, and is very old)
chicky mama (she has at least 1 fawn every year)
limpy ( she got hit by a car and now has a limp
ticks ( this is the unlucky one that gets all the ticks)
