Pardon my off topic rant, but cats are by no means close to a problem as deer are. I’m not sure of other regions of the country, but in the northeastern suburbs, they are a HUGE problem and hazard to motorists. I cannot begin to count the number of carcasses I find on the side of the road to and from work and other areas driving around. At night, when driving through wooded areas, they just dart right in front of the car.
I advocate deer season should be year long.
I agree. I live in rural Michigan and out here there are 2 kinds of drivers: 1. Those who have hit a deer and, 2.Those who are going to.

Not off topic at all....and absolutely correct. Around here they are nothing but giant rats with antlers. Good eating, though.
It is important to have some outdoor cats around. They are very good at keeping mice and rats down.
But the deer are a real problem: they destroy property and endanger humans. My old Dodge pick-up has hit so many deer, that a lot of my hunting rifles are jealous of it.
ROADS are the hazard the way the deer see it. The DEER were
here FIRST! Of course, back in the early days of this
country, deer were hunted for FOOD any time food was needed.
RE: Deer
I hit one every 125k miles -
It’s been 110K since the last hit.
