[QUOTE="BSK, post: 5718156, member: 17"] I think that depends on how much human intrusion/interaction they are used to. In remote areas with little human traffic until deer season, they won't put up with much. In farmland, where farmers/people are going through all the time, they will ignore any activity they deem nonthreatening. I [B]intentionally[/B] try to acclimate deer on my place to my presence. I work in the food plots, wander through the woods all year, work cameras, etc. without making any effort to hide my scent or presence. In fact, I will vape my strong-smelling vape even around scrapes I'm monitoring with cameras. I'll drive up to the camera on ATV, work the camera, sit and vape for a minute or two, and then leave. Mature bucks will be working that scrape an hour later. They pay me little attention because they smell me all year, and the vast majority of the time, I'm harmless to them. [/QUOTE]
