What if a deer suddenly crosses in front of your car?
Q. Hi, everyone. Last week, a college student from my community died in a car accident in trying to avoid a deer. I don't know exact details but I think she was driving on an area with 40 mph limit sign and deer warning sign posted. The article said she swerved onto trees as she was trying to avoid hitting a deer. It was especially tragic because she was such a bright, young woman who was gonna be an asset in this world. I imagined myself in her situation. What choice would I have made? Would I hit the deer straight-on instead of avoiding? Would hitting the deer decrease the chance of dying dramatically? I realize there is a remote chance anyone will face this situation in their life when driving. But I still would like to hear what is the… [cont.]

A. i am so sorry about your friend. it is possible she may have paniced as such an occurance is not an everyday thing. had she hit the deer, she still may have died if the deer was a large one as there would have been substantial damage. braking hard may have helped but then again it depends on the road conditions. The situation has many outcomes.

How to attract deer to an area in the shortest amount of time?
Q. My friend's home is in an area heavy populated with deer. They will visit his back yard during the day time but not at night when he has guests over.

How can I keep deer from eating my tulips?
Q. We have a huge herd of deer that live in our wooded neighborhood and every spring I have to work hard to keep them from eating my tulips. I LOVE to have the deer visit but I dont want them to eat my plants. Anyone know of a safe home remedy I can use to prevent this? I have tried human hair and it does help but it is a pain to do because the hair blows away, etc... any other ideas? LOL... you guys are funny. I DO hunt actually and love venison but unfortunantly there are A LOT of deer here and I am in city limits so I cant hunt or shoot a gun in city limits. PLus I kind of like the deer.

How come Deer can live longer than humans when shot in the heart?
Q. When shooting humans in the heart, they either die instantly or die withing seconds. When you shoot a deer in the heart, He can run off for several meters. Why is this? Saids Doctors and common sense. How can you bring up movies?

A. Humans don't die instantly- a man shot in the heart can still live for seconds, possibly over a minute (source: the military). A deer can run for a while with it's hear blown out also- mainly because of adrenaline. If you just shot it, and sit down, it will die soon, when you stand up and start yelling about what a big one you got... you will be tracking him for the next two hours.

A. Tall fence is about it. Perhaps a double-high layer of chicken wire would do it? Eight feet is best for deer. For shorter critters, it's best to dig in the fence at least six inches. An alternative is to scatter whole cayenne peppers throughout the garden, but watch out touching those yourself!

The deer cannot see the line and when they touch it, it scares them and they run away. I been using this for years and it works. The other thing you can do is to tie some line in the woods from tree to tree, thus; no more deer in the yard from the woods that is. They now come up my driveway, but that s when the stakes do there job. The nice thing about this is you don t hurt the deer and you save them for the hunters.

Will whitetail buck deer grow antlers if they have been castrated?
Q. I have two 2 1/2 year old bucks. Last season they were very agressive durnig the rut. (October-January) I enjoy them mostly because of their antlers. In my home state law require that I keep captive deer until their death. But I am concerned about their agression. If some way they where to get out they could be very dangerous. This is why I want to castrate them to take away the aggression. Will this affect the growing of antlers? They are pets and are like big dogs most of the year.

A. The effect of castration on antler development varies, depending on the age class of the deer and the stage of antler growth when the castration occurs. If a young fawn is castrated within the first few months, that deer will not develop pedicles and therefore never develop antlers. Older fawns that have been castrated have been documented of growing a permanent, small, knob-like mass of velvet. If an adult buck is castrated during antler growth and in the velvet, the lack of testosterone allows the velvet antlers to continue growing, omitting the velvet shedding stage and total ossification of antler. These antlers may go on growing for a long period of time creating large cactus racks. These antlers will not shed in the spring. A buck… [cont.]

What is a good flowering plant that the deer will not eat?

Asked by mama of 4+extras? - Fri Apr 6 12:52:38 2007 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments
A. There are damn few things that deer won't eat when desperate for food. The only truly bullet proof flowering plant is the Dahlia. Occasionally however, bucks will do a Don Quixote fighting windmill imitation and annihilate the plant with their newly grown velvet horns. Fortunately, only late in the year when the plants are full grown and usually just one plant. The good news is Dahlias are spectacular and bloom til frost. I've seen deer eat onions, leeks, tomato plants drenched with hot pepper spray, rudbeckia, echinacea and countless other plants reputed to be deer safe. good luck.

A. I've tried just about everything because I have the same problem with white-tail deer. Select plants they do not like... cana lilies, rosemary, lavender, etc. Ask at your garden store... they definitely can help. Also try a product called Deer Scram. (Do a keyword search.) You sprinkle it around your yard and it supposedly keeps the deer away. I tried coyote pee (it comes in a bottle at the garden shop) but it didn't work. Also tried motion sensor lights. Didn't work. Deer get accustomed to these things and they figure out pretty quickly that nothing is going to happen. I've even found deer staring into my windows.
