Is it just me, or are the south deer on the small side.
They look like a BB gun would drop them.

I noticed that about wildlife in general. The squirrels are definitely smaller here.

Probably 'cause those "folks from around here" kill them before they are allowed to mature!

Just curious about the design of the square they put there. Hope it has a large dance floor with plenty of seating and enough room for market nights and lots of shopping and..... Oh, never mind.

...that sounds like deer in deep south florida, like the "key deer".....
I have seen wild Hogs along I-75 north of Gainesville that were way bigger
than "key deer".

The BIGGEST Deer I have EVER seen were on the West end of the
Cell Phone Lot (RED lot) at the Orlando Airport...(on South Access Road).
......that statement coming from a person who is from "UP NORF".....
.....................................and we had some "biggins" roaming the farms.
