(While they distilled alcohol, I am fairly certain that members of the Mayan culture didn't carry firearms, wear safety orange or need special permits to take antlerless deer. In fact, some Mayan artisan actually saluted this doe in ceramic form. That said, happy firearms deer season to you hunters who will go sit out in the predicted freezing rain before sunup next Monday. P.S.: Never make fun of art historians for incomprehensible pursuits, all right? Ever again. You know who you are. And I know where you've plugged your campers' extension cords into our household outlets.)

I wouldn’t mess with her If I were you and apparently you know who you are even if I don’t LOL BTW I’m plugging for the doe a deer
What a lovely, reclining pose. It looks like the Mayan deer is licking herself…is that a tongue I see, or the lower part of her mouth?
