Speaker 1 (00:44):
Yesterday I went for a walk and as I am walking,
I had a deer and it's family, because there was
at least four to five of them stare me in
the eyes with these beady eyes and look like they
wanted to eat me. It got to a point where
I literally sat there thinking to myself that I am
going to die right here in the west Bloomfield.

That's what it was. It was, I'm going to eat
this fat guy because we can't find enough vegetation to
eat on the side of the road. Has anybody ever
been attacked by a deer? And I saw this story
recently about a guy that was driving his motorcycle in
ann Arbor and got killed by a deer.
Speaker 2 (01:38):
That's such a sad story. He's like a twenty year
old kid.
Speaker 4 (01:41):
Did it like running a side of him or was
it like a head on collision?
Speaker 1 (01:44):
I think it jumped out of nowhere, and when it
did it, it knocked him off his bike and he
ended up dying.
Speaker 2 (01:49):
Yeah, A long long way to ride.
Speaker 4 (01:51):
Yeah, forget when you pop out in the street and
you see these deers, do you just like stand there
and freeze?
Speaker 3 (01:57):
By the way, I think the plural of its deer
is deer.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
I don't know, but because they were they were deers
with ears and they were like, you know how when
your ears point up or like kind of like kind
of look at you, like when they're kind of like
looking kind of crazy.
Speaker 3 (02:14):
Man that and one of them had like antlers already.
Speaker 5 (02:17):
Oh, I walk right up to them when I see them.
You do I love deer?
Speaker 2 (02:21):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (02:22):
And what do you do?
Speaker 2 (02:23):
I try to talk to them and pedal.
Speaker 5 (02:27):
Okay, Okay, you're gonna think I'm crazy when I say this,
and I totally understand that I am. I always think
that deer are a sign that my grandma, my Grandma
Grace is around me so and like giving me some
sort of like sign about something happening in my life.
So when I see them, I know it's not, but
I try to walk up to them. It's like a
big I get very emotional.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
What about when you see them on the side of
the road.
Speaker 2 (02:48):
I get so sad. I have to look away.
Speaker 3 (02:49):
I'm not talking women.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
And when people tell me they hunt, I just can't. Yeah,
I can't.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
I'm going to tell you that these deer were not
your grandma Grace. These deer were the devil and they
were looking at me becauld. Usually deer are pretty and
there's always baby, what are they falling?
Speaker 3 (03:07):
Or don't right?
Speaker 2 (03:08):
No, that's that's femail. I'm sorry.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
I'm not up on my deer vocabulary. The little cute ones.
There's a lot of baby ones.
Speaker 3 (03:16):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (03:17):
I don't know if they're birthing over at Corwell Health
or something by my house or what the story is.
But these guys, there's more little baby deer these days.
And I think that what it was was the mama
dear papa deer were protecting the baby deer. And I
think that the baby deer was the one that was
trying to be friendly with me, and I was trying
to get away from the baby deer. I want nothing.
I'm like, I'm not your father, Stay away from me.
Speaker 3 (03:39):

was coming home on my motorcycle doing about seventy five
eighty and had.
Speaker 3 (03:57):
A deer run out on me and a curve. Dude.
I didn't walk for eight.
Speaker 7 (04:01):
Months and broke almost every bone on the right side
of my body.

Speaker 1 (04:16):
When what did people stop for you to to save you?
Speaker 3 (04:22):
Or how did how did they did? Did you get help?
Speaker 6 (04:26):
Uh?
Speaker 3 (04:26):
So I was kind of out in the middle of nowhere.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
Luckily some guy pulled up.
Speaker 3 (04:30):
I couldn't find my phone, So luckily some guy pulled
up and was able to call nine one one and
get people out there.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
God, that's amazing that you're alive and thank God for that.
What a horrible situation.
Speaker 3 (04:42):
Yeah, it's a blessing.
Speaker 1 (04:43):
Think about this when you're driving on a motorcycle or
in a convertible, that thing gonna fly up and nail
you right in the head.
Speaker 3 (04:51):
What's up, Kelsey? Oh hey, no Joe, how you doing?
Speaker 7 (05:03):
Calvin good?
Speaker 6 (05:05):
My mom was actually attacked by a deer. They live
out in Commerce and they were on a walk with
the dog and all of a sudden, a mama deer
came out and kicked my mom.
Speaker 3 (05:14):
I think it might be the same deer. I swear
to you, I live not that far from there. It's craziness.
It came out and kicked her out of nowhere.
Speaker 6 (05:23):
Yes, yep, yep, they thought that she, I guess, got
too close to the babies. They were on a walking
trail and the deer were in the woods.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
It's protected, I'm telling it is. I am concealed, carrying
on my next walk. I got to I got to
protect myself. Looked like a blind shooter. I'll get something.
What's up, Delizament, how you doing?
Speaker 7 (05:47):
Hi? Good morning. I was in my very own backyard
in Birmingham with my dog, standing about two feet from
my dog, and this deer came over the fence at
us and tried to pound on. My dog started jumping,
and I.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
Just wanted a plane.
Speaker 7 (06:03):
I think it's a baby in the in the yard
and the door.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
But still, you're telling us that a deer tried to
mount your dog. That would have been the most amazing
Animalmingham and stuff like that.
Speaker 3 (06:16):
Did you say, did you say get a room at
the townsend? Damn it?
Speaker 1 (06:20):
What's going on? That's craziness, Elizabeth, that's wild.
Speaker 3 (06:27):
Hold on. Pamela was camping and what happened? Pamela?
Speaker 8 (06:35):
Okay, good morning. My family and I were camping and
one night I was really super sick and so I
got up and I was going to go to the
campground bathroom to be sick. And I'm walking kind of
just like with my head down and just walking towards
the bathroom, and all of a sudden, I look up
and I am in between this mama deer and a
(06:56):
baby deer. I didn't know that they put feeders out
at night and say the deer at this campground. And
I thought, oh, do deer charge? And I was like,
I'm going to die, and I happened to look up.
I looked up at the mamma deer first, because I
was in between her and her baby. And I thought,
you know, because bears they say we'll charge it, Well,
(07:17):
you know, killed you. It's between a baby and pump.
So I'm thinking, okay, I'm fixing to die. Oh, well,
this is how I end. But I've looked up at
the mama deer and I of course in my mind
they were five feet around, you know. And but anyway,
I hear this, oh, and I'm thinking, okay, this is
(07:38):
how I go out. And but then I was thinking, okay, well,
I'm just gonna have to die because I'm sick. I
got to go and it's like took off run and
then the deer scattered. But I thought for sure I
was going to die.
Speaker 1 (07:49):
I thought for sure that you were going to say
that the deer started talking to you. And that's when, like,
I'm waiting for this story. I'm like waiting for the
climax of the story, and I'm going this is unbelievable,
and there was no climax.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
You just threw up that was it?
Speaker 8 (08:04):
Yes, yes, yes, But at the same time I learned
that night. Yet they're not going to charge at me.
Speaker 3 (08:11):
Okay, we're not.
Speaker 7 (08:11):
They were.
Speaker 8 (08:12):
They were kind of docile there.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
They were just as scared as you probably were. Tina,
what's up, Tina?
Speaker 8 (08:19):
I won't show. I love you, guys.
Speaker 3 (08:22):
Drama queen, queen, what are you talking about? I could just.

Picture you screaming and running around, running away like little girl,
like like how Selfie always says, Remember there's the truth,
and then there's.
Speaker 3 (08:40):
Tina.
Speaker 7 (08:41):
Gosh, Tin, I'm the same as Shannon.
Speaker 8 (08:45):
Well, my grandma's not my dear, but I love I can't.
I can't handle the the hunting, the shooting, like.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
It's just no, no, no, now, we gotta kill more
of these damn things. Otherwise they're going to overtake us.
I'm telling you, if we don't start killing these deer,
we're going to be running away from our houses.
Speaker 3 (09:05):
Are going to get taken by them. I'm serious.
Speaker 1 (09:10):
The whole idea is to you know, get rid of
the herd or whatever. I don't know what the heck
it is. That's the reason why they want. The deer
have come down to our neighborhoods because they were not
killing enough of them.
Speaker 4 (09:22):
Not that's because we keep chopping down a neighborhood. We
need to That's what the problem is. We need to
chop I'm going to bring them to Detroit. I'm bringing
a deer to Eastern Market. We got enough animals.
