I’m sitting on my back porch; I live in a small city. There are what we call, city deer (white tail deer), munching away at my neighbors lawn. These animals are extremely adapted to living among houses and busy streets. They live off of small patches of grass, bird feeders, and have to travel to and from their water source.
All in all a fairly hearty animal.
Why don’t humans use them to pull carts or raise them for meat? To me they seem as hearty as a goat but bigger. Wouldnt that be a better domestic animal?
My first explanation is that they can jump to high, making them impractical to contain. Is that why humans havent domesticated deer?
