Not sure where you live, but Fairfax County does have a Deer Management Program. It was pretty disconcerting the first time I saw the hunters in the park behind my house!

Montgomery County has one too.

DC deer are managed via sharpshooters in the National Parks. https://www.nps.gov/rocr/learn/management/white-tailed-deer-management.htm#:~:text=What%20is%20the%20Deer%20Management,affecting%20the%20environment%20is%20made.

There's not really any area nearby where animal rights folks have prevented culling afaik.

So may don't keep one enclosed and then go in after it.....

But this woman was keeping this male deer in a pen on her property? And then was trapped inside the enclosure with it? Seems like this is an example of play stupid games and win stupid prizes or the Darwin effect.

“Cull?!?” MORE LIKE MURDER !

There's always one...

I have deer and turkeys come through my back yard out of the woods all the time. I enjoy seeing the fawns every spring and sometimes I can even start to recognize them as they grow towards the fall. Sometimes they just sit on the grass and have a nice rest. They feel safe in the open on my property and don't run.

I buy 80lbs at a time of raw peanuts in the shell and toss them out.

I get a lot of crows, too, and sometimes they leave me little sparkly things on the outside table where I put their peanuts.

Oh deer!

Get a grip. Most of them starve because there is not enough food. The kind thing is to cull the herd.

“Don’t kill Bambi”
