Feeding the Deer for Winter in Wisconsin.

Today's Cellar and Neatorama Image of the Week is this photo found by Cellar user xoxoxoBruce, captioned:

Dinner Time in Eagle River, Wisconsin. These people living in Northern Wisconsin put some corn out in the dead of winter to sustain the area deer. When I said the deer up here were as thick as cats and dogs, I wasn't far off. Wisconsin community of Eagle River.

See more fun and fantastic images on Cellar Image of the Day, you won't regret it (check out their extensive archive!)

You are NOT helping these deer! Soooo many people have this misconception. Deer are acustomed to eating woody vegetaion in the winter. Feeding them oats, corn and hay, can KILL THEM. Their bacterial colonies in their stomachs cannot digest this food durring this time of the year. They will DIE with a full stomach, because they cannot digest the food! If you REALLY care about these deer, do them a favor! STOP FEEDING THEM!
