YES. All my leaves on my young (planted 4/2019) LSU fig tree were recently chewed off overnight. I found deer hoofprints around it. The tree is still alive and the main branches are fine. I surrounded the tree with 4' tall dogwire with lower area chicken wire too! I attached pieces o my hair (taken from hairbrush) to it as the human scent is supposed to be a deterrent. I live in wooded area, and always see deer. Having a garden is futile.
