The poor condition of the Deer and their enclosure at Marineland is one of the most consistently complained about features of the park. In this picture you can see the barren landscape that the deer live in. The area has very little shade throughout the day and has no trees or grass available for shelter. Deer appear to rely on visitors to provide treats and are often reported begging for food, where naturally their timid demeanor would prevent them from getting close to humans. Visitors being allowed to feed and interact with deer also poses health risks for humans as many deer have been seen with visible wounds that could potentially harbor diseases or infections.
