Josephine (Doe #17)

Once observed charging and kicking a large buck who was chasing off her last fawn, Josephine is known for her fierce loyalty, bravery, and spirit.  Never straying far from her BFF Juniper (Doe #19), Josephine (who’s nickname is Josie) also enjoys hanging out with several other doe family groups in the neighborhood.  In fact, we […]

Juniper (Doe #19)

For the first two years of our program, Juniper was our resident culinary critic, eschewing the offerings of corn at our bait sites that most other deer find so alluring.  In fact, a member of our team once observed her sniffing disdainfully at the corn before turning away with her head held high, rather as […]

Pippy (Doe #25)

She’s a little goofy, a deer who likes to zig when everyone else is zagging, convention be damned.  Fortunately her family –  big sister Doe #28 (aka Maliki) and kid sister Doe #42 – love her just the way she is, and why wouldn’t they?  She’s as adorable when she shows up late for dinner, […]

Peggy (Doe #51)

Peggy is one assertive deer — if she comes to a bait station to get her picture taken and dinner hasn’t been served yet, she’ll stand there stomping her hoof impatiently until it is (we here at “Deer Headquarters” can only be thankful that she doesn’t post reviews about us on Yelp!)  But she has […]

Scarlet (Doe #48)

Remember the “Pig-Pen” character in the Peanuts comic strips? The sweet little boy who was always very dirty?  We promised Doe #48 that her name will be much more dignified than that – and Mark & Kim really delivered – but we have to admit the resemblance is a bit uncanny.  Scarlet’s tags are always, […]

Susie (Doe #88)

Like her namesake, Susie has a warm, endearing  “go big or go home” personality.  She joined the Clifton herd as a ~2 year old immigrant in the Fall of 2021 and settled in the Edgewood Grove area, quickly becoming a fixture in the backyards of McAlpin Avenue.  Although she arrived in Clifton alone, Susie seems […]

In Memoria: Alex (Doe #45)

Sadly, Alex was killed by an automobile on or around June 16, 2021.  She was survived by her family, Doe #5, Doe #6, and Doe #33.  We will forever be grateful for the joy Alex brought to us. Below is Alex’ original adoption post.  If you would like to make a donation in remembrance of […]

In Memoria: Becky (Doe #76)

We tragically lost Becky in September 2022 to Epizootic Hemorrhagic Disease (a highly lethal disease spread by midges).  She was about 6.5 years old at the time of her passing.  We thank her for the joy she brought to our neighborhood for the short time she was with us.      Below is Becky’s original […]

In Memoria: Ethel (Doe #55)

On October 1st, 2021, we learned that our beloved Ethel had been found dead of unknown causes near the woods where she spent her life.  She is survived by her family, Doe #23 a/k/a Harriet, Doe #49 a/k/a Gladys, and Doe #71 a/k/a Mae.   We will never forget her antics and remain grateful for the […]

In Memoria: Grace (Doe #63)

Our beloved Grace was killed by a vehicle as she was crossing the road on McAlpin Avenue on February 14, 2020.  She was survived by her constant companion (and likely daughter Ruth (Doe #60).   We will never forget you, Grace – you were one of a kind. Below is Grace’s original adoption post.   If you […]
