17-year-old Kelvin Peña from Pennsylvania looks like your average teen except he isn’t – this guy belongs to a deer squad! That’s right, Kelvin has recently befriended one curious deer by giving him food and has been spending some quality time with a whole family of deer ever since.
“I saw Money [the deer] in my backyard, walked up to him, and noticed he didn’t run away, so I felt we had a connection,” he told BuzzFeed. “I went inside and grabbed him an apple, and he ate it. I expected him to leave but he kept following me, so that’s when I grabbed some Club Crackers and started feeding him. His name is Money ‘cause I feel like he deserves that name – money makes me happy and he did too, so I felt like we had a friendship.
“Every day since, he comes to my house and brings his lil’ family, which I all gave names too – they’re my deer squad,” Kelvin added. Kelvin even plays basketball with Money and has started selling deer-themed t-shirts hoping that “money and his deer family can have some nice, tasty, healthy snacks.”

What is that sign he does with his hand? I've seen it before but I'm not hip and have no idea what it means.
Please be careful, because where there are deer, mountain lions are never far behind.
Actually, I think cougars are very rare in Pennsylvania (or probably most of the eastern US).
