WOODLAND PARK, Colo. (
KDVR) — A 77-year-old woman was attacked in her home by a deer Tuesday, according to Colorado Parks and Wildlife officers.
CPW said it believes the deer was being fed illegally by the woman’s neighbors.
“This is another dangerous example of what happens when people feed wildlife,” said Cody Wigner, CPW assistant area wildlife manager for the Pikes Peak region. “They become habituated to people, lose their fear and become aggressive and dangerous.”
The CPW said the woman was bringing in groceries from her car Tuesday when a mature doe followed her in through her propped-open door and surprised her inside her home.
