The deer scare is a furniture item in Animal Crossing: New Leaf. It is part of the Zen Garden Set.
The deer scare can be obtained from Timmy and Tommy's store for 1,800 Bells.[nb 2]
This item appears as a furniture item in the homes of Croque, Limberg, Tank, and Walt. As a result, this item can be purchased by the player if they were invited by any of the preceding villagers. These villagers may also put this item up for sale at the Re-Tail flea market for 50% to 90% of the item's buy price, in increments of 10%.
Real-world information
Shishi-odoshi (鹿威し?) is a Japanese device, which includes a water fountain and a tube often made of bamboo that has its heavier side on the rocks. The tube is gradually filled up with the water from the fountain, which changed the tube's center of gravity and tips the tube down towards the fountain to dump the water. The tube then hits the rock again, creating a loud noise, and the cycle repeats. Though the shishi-odoshi was meant to fend off animals known to threaten agriculture in the country, including deer and boars, its use nowadays is often a decoration for gardens.
Despite its name, the deer scare cannot frighten deer villagers in-game. More information on this topic is available at Wikipedia.

Notes
- ↑ Re-Tail sell price; can be sold for 80% of this price ( 360 Bells) at Timmy and Tommy's store
- ↑ As a standard furniture item available from Timmy and Tommy's store, this item is also available from the following sources: shaking trees; gifts from villagers and campers; the player's birthday; balloons (if the item's rarity group is very rare); and the police station (if the item's rarity group is common)
- ↑ Filly and Holden cannot legitimately move to the player's town via normal gameplay, but a default house layout can be observed via hacking. They share the same housing layout.
