Here's a nice buck caught on a trail camera in Jan. Ok, did you see the deer feeder? Did you know they are illegal to use. I didn't know it until three years of having it up and a game warden stopped and said I had to take it down, so I did.
One thing I don't get.....if they are illegal to use, why does just about every place sell them? Did you know it's also illegal to feed wild animals of any kind? You are not even to throw food out for the animals.
And no, your not suppose the feed the birds or squirrels either.......
While the Humane Society of the United States cautions against feeding wild animals in just about every other capacity, feeding birds and squirrels in your own backyard is generally harmless. But that doesn't mean you can't get legally dinged for setting out a bird feeder.
Some cities or municipalities may have ordinances preventing bird feeders, while others can issue fines against owners whose feeders are not in compliance with the law. You aren't likely to be arrested for illegal bird or squirrel feeders, but you may be facing hundreds of dollars in fines.
