On the way back through the gully path I spotted about 4 or 5 deer about 30 yards away and above us and stopped to point them out to my kids. I expected them to run away but was surprised as they made advancements down the gully towards us instead. At about 20 yards I could see through the trees how emaciated they all were and wondered if they were considering trying to eat us. I didn't stop to satisfy my suspicions and stepped-up the pace out of the wood.
