Here in Northern Wisconsin, the deer are like cockroaches. I assume Michigan is the same. The huge amount of damage they do to property, crops etc. is mind boggling. Not to mention darting in traffic. Somebody would have to be a real idiot to do this.
30K vehicle accidents related to deer in iowa 2009-2014.
They are Dims. If they weren't stupid, mentally challenged, brain damaged, choose one, they wouldn't vote for Democrats.
I lost an in-law, in Michigan, when a deer bounced in front of him while he was on his motorcycle. He caught the deer smack in the chest at 60 miles an hour...
Rats with antlers. Deer aren't too useful, either.
I call them rats with hooves, WV has the highest rate of deer collisions with cars, the 2nd state is not even close.
Nope! Certainly not in the Western U.P. above Green Bay!!
Dumbass DNR in Michigan re-introduced wolves to the U.P. and they've been breeding like rabbits. Hardly a deer to be found near our hunting camp the last 10+ years now. We used to see HUNDREDS of deer in the hayfields most evenings in the fall. Now we're lucky to see a dozen or two. The doe's come out, the buck's stay at the treelines making them hard to see.
Between the wolves and the DNR expanding and creating hunting seasons out of thin air (an "early hunt?" "late hunt?" C'mon!) just to get more revenue they've damn' near wiped out the deer population in the U.P. by us.
Michigan is the same. My cousin lives just over the line in Toledo, and others from the family are in MI just to the north of there. Said cousin sustained some front bumper damage a street away from her house, in Toledo proper, not out in the country or anything. She is near a large park, however.
Large exurban rats on the hoof, in my book.
Same deal in GA. We are lousy with deer. A deer tag here is 2 per day 14 per season. They walk up and down the streets in our neighborhood eating grass and gardens. We could shoot them off the deck.
