I thought it was hilarious. Although, that sort of thing is not uncommon. People have tried to domesticate deer, just like all the other animals of the Kingdom, since the discovery of dirt. These cases often end in tragedy, due to your "Avg Joe" thinking along the same lines as the unfortunate from your letter.

I personally knew a gentleman that had no previous experience/training in animal behavior, nor was he an outdoorsman of any caliber. He did however, have a fawn that he raised in a pin w/12' fencing. 3 yrs later the fawn had developed into a very mature buck. During the following rut season, the buck went on the attack. This was most likely sparked from a breeze of wind that carried the scent of a female in heat.

I have been an avid hunter/fisherman/outdoorsman my entire life. I can tell you from personal experience that these animals can be VERY lethal. After the ordeal of the poor chap in the letter, I'm sure he grew a profound respect for the animals of the wild.
