A property owner in rural Missouri discovered a deer with a collar and the word "pet" painted on its body, prompting concern for its well-being. Authorities suspect an attempt at domestication and emphasize that wild animals, especially deer, are not suited for domestic life. The Missouri Department of Conservation issued a reminder about the dangers of interacting with deer, citing the risk of Chronic Wasting Disease. Efforts are underway to safely capture the deer, remove the collar, and release it back into the wild, highlighting the importance of respecting wildlife and their natural habitats.
