Can Deer Climb Stairs?
My neighbor swears there were deer tracks in the snow on her second story deck. Just wondering if anyone has encountered this.

1. Deer can climb about anything
Short of a tree.

5. Darn Varmints!
They've become much more common in the neighborhood over the past couple of years. I guess I'll have to figure out how to keep them off my deck before I put the flower pots out this spring. They already have to jump the fence to get in the yard.

4. Oh yeah
We have steps out back and they're up them every winter to graze off what's left of the flower beds.

8. And very prolific
Saw about two dozen along the interstate one day in maybe a one mile stretch of road. With all the housing developments going up near my neighborhood, I guess they have to go somewhere.

10. If a deer can climb a mountain
why not stairs. I don't think they've mastered the elevator yet. :evilgrin:
