However, this also draws Mountain lions with so many deer in this area and forests. In fact, within one block of our house a Doorbell camera or other security camera has video night footage of a mated pair of Mountain Lions roaming the area at night. Also, another neighbor watched a Mountain Lion walk through her yard while eating breakfast as well one morning.
The point is that a lot of deer live here and we have personally watched about 5 generations of deer mostly in matriarchal groups have their Fawns next door to us in a green belt that has some shelter for them under the trees where they feel safer.
Another experience I had with two of my dogs that have since passed away is one night at about 9 pm I was walking my dogs and since the stars were out and I could see the milky way because there are no street lights allowed where I live. So, it was pretty dark accept for the Milky Way.
So, all of a sudden both my dogs were barking so I brought out my flashlight to see what was the problem. Luckily, I think I must have had my two dogs on leash and the larger one was about 60 or 70 pounds then.
the Dogs had cornered a Buck Deer with a lot of antlers into a corner by a fence. I thought at first the dogs and I were dead. But then, the Buck jumped right over my head without hitting my head with his hooves. If I hadn't seen this done I would have never believed this might be possible. because remember I'm about 6 foot 5 inches tall and this Buck Deer jumped right over my head. I was never more amazed how this turned out.
But, it also makes a great story to tell now too that everyone survived uninjured (including the deer).
