Deer: Majestic or Menace

The day after we mowed the lawn, we had some unexpected guests enjoying the delectable new shoots of grass that had grown over night.

Remember now that these "Majestic" Creatures are the same varmints that ate all my lettuce last winter

The damned deer ate my red & head lettuce!

Buttercrunch and Romaine Lettuces after planting...

Overnight, the deer ate most of it!

They've eaten my lettuces, my tomatoes, my hot peppers... everything that wasn't covered or caged.
Now I ask you, are they rats with a larger profile and greater appetite or still "aww, look at the deer!"

In my opinion, I can't wait for hunting season so I can dine on some venison!
