Deer who have figured out that they are safe do swagger around being snooty.
I lived for a while on a super secret Naval weapons base. The deer outside it were culled each year. The deer who lived on the base had acres and acres, hundreds of acres to live in.
They chose to walk down the middle of the street, and eye you when you came up behind them in a car. They hung around the Mcdonalds, eating dropped fries.
I once made the mistake of putting a plate of oatmeal cookies outdoors. Deer sailed over my six foot yard fence and ate them down to the crumbs.
