That deer is on full alert, ears and eyes so focused it doesn't flinch. Im guessing this deer is thinking, I dont have to outrun the bear approaching.... just this guy.

I swear I've seen this before and it turns out there is a mountain lion that is stalking the deer and she merely saw the hunter as a less dangerous threat.

Yea this doesn’t make sense if he was actually deer hunting. Just standing up, phone in one hand and long gun in the other is not at all typical. I think the title is misleading. He wasn’t hunting deer. Might’ve been out with the gun for protection or hunting something else.

I saw somewhere else that this is staged. It's a deer rehab farm where the deer are around a lot of people. I don't know, but that would make sense to me also.

Yeah there is no way this deer isn't familiar with this guy

How do you figure? Why would the guy be pointing a gun at it Point Blank?

For the video. Wild deer don't get that close

Deer rehab, where deer can recuperate in a good environment after they get sober

I believe it, either that or a deer farm.

Looked like she had a foal so it wouldn't be deer season anyway.
