Is it OK to feed the deer?

: It’s not illegal but is strongly discouraged. Why? Deer are cute, but they rapidly become accustomed to humans and become dependent on feeding from your home. They reproduce rapidly but will die an unnatural death from starvation and automobile strikes if they become habituated to humans. Once habituated, they will roam the neighborhood, eating anything they can find… including all plants and flowers. Ask the residents of Hollywood Park, here in San Antonio. Deer have become a major problem in that subdivision.
