Nara Park shows "Shika-Yose", calling deer by a horn and feeding them on sweet potatos, during winter. The behavior attracted to the sound of a horn is considered as a conditioning by food.
To promote the presentation effect some deers are gathered to the farm behind the left side forest from the preceding day (Kawamura, 1958). Some of the group from the left side may include the deers from the farm.
