But they're a pain!

We have a great many deer at your house in the Catskills. Frequently, they get killed by vehicles on the country roads and highways. They eat many of the plants and we can't possibly grow flowers without severe and unsightly protection.

Still, the other day there was a baby deer in our yard crying for its mother. She never showed up and it broke my heart.
