Default deer don't eat pawpaws

I have three young pawpaw trees in my back yard (none have borne fruit yet

Bros., or Miller - I forget which.) They're native to much of the U.S.,
apparently, and deer don't eat the leaves or twigs.

Anyone else grow them? Have you gotten fruit?


Deer won't eat them, but the raccoons will.
