The deer don’t seem to mind. Maybe cos they’re does (as in Doe a deer). Male deer don’t have antlers at this time of year.

i understand the deer’s mental health is anguished by our idiocy. Hence OPW media onslaught of late

they don’t seem to mind until they do, and then you’ll have some idiot getting hurt.

also, these are fallow deer and only bucks have antlers. you’re thinking of reindeer for antlers.

Don’t feed the deer!
So many idiots choose to ignore this very simple advice. It’s like beating your antlers against a tree sometimes.

It’s only a month since the OPW issued an urgent appeal to the public to leave the deer alone, specifically advising that selfies and feeding are causing significant long term harm to the herd.
You briefly covered it yourselves so why are you now blithely posting these images as “cute” pictures without context, promoting activities that harm animals and are in direct contravention of government agency recommendations? You didn’t even link to your own previous coverage or the OPW guidelines or use the #StopFeedingTheDeer hash tag. “You Sleigh Me” is far too subtle to get the message across. Please stop encouraging idiots to copy the ignorant/selfish (it’s one of the two) adult above who is harming the deer and setting a bad example for the child.
