Honeysuckle Vs. Blackberry: Which do deer prefer to eat? (outtake)

Will deer eat honeysuckle? The answer is Yes, they will – when they are hungry and there’s no other quality browse available. In this video, Dr. Grant Woods, Wildlife Biologist, shows how deer prefer native blackberries over the honeysuckle. Then he has advice on how to remove it so that more attractive food sources are available to the whitetails on this property.
