Deer friends in Nara...

Do you recall ever seeing a sign that says do not feed the wildlife? In the Nara prefecture, they encourage you to feed the white tailed deer roamin freely around the park. You are sole a pack of biscuits for 150 yen and it's at that point you become extremely popular amongst the deer. 
These deer are for the most part friendly unless you give them a hard time getting the biscuit. They show their love for you with a nudging head and an adorable nose run on your shorts. If they are really "starved" for attention, you may get a little nip on the but or your shirt. 
"Come on man... Feed me!"

These fellows and ladies live the life of royalty. They are fed daily by hand of a thousand servants, roam the fields to their hearts desire, and are surrounded by absolutely stunning gardens and temples. It is as if they were worshiped here at some point in history... Oh wait, they were.
