Mother Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 We've had a ton of deer and fawn over the years, not as pets exactly but we've had a few who stayed around a long time, though they were free. One, Felicity, even brought it's twin fawns back to visit us but then she was the 'pet' of the whole neighborhood when she was young. We had to paint her orange during deer season as she would walk right up to a hunter and lick their face or worse yet.......drink their coffee. She loved coffee with cream and sugar in it. (sorry to borrow you Nana) I don't know the answer to the question but would suspect it could be Teddy Roosevelt because he was a nature lover and would perhaps believe that it was a waste of a good tree?

Guest Guest Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 Funny about painting your deer orange Mother. Willie would follow hunters around too. One man said, if he hadn't know it was Willie, he'd a been frightened to death. He and a friend had deer scent on their boots and the friend, who didn't know Willie, about croaked when he turned around and had a deer stalking him instead of the other way around. , Teddy Roosevelt is correct! Let's try a riddle this time. Really stupid but kind of fun! What does a nearsighted Christmas gingerbread cookie use for eyes? Link to comment
Mother Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 Red antlers are even more interesting than an orange deer. Did you ever wonder what HE thought of the red antlers or worse yet,,,did the other deer laugh and call him names and not let him play in any reindeer games? Your riddle is too deep for me but I can hardly wait for some replies to come in. I bet there are some good ones out there. Link to comment
