Why do deer like licking my cameras?

[Handcannon]

I've had it happen many times over the years. Today, I moved a camera to another location. It hadn't even been on the tree for an hour & out of nowhere a forky comes up, sniffs it, licks it & trots away. Made me laugh!

Deer lick camera’s for the same reason a dog licks his balls, because they can!
