I saw deer feeding at the side of I-64 Eastbound near Afton Mountain in Virginia yesterday at dusk.

In Virginia, cars are one of the main ways thats culls the numbers.

Large numbers of deer strikes in Ohio also. The deer population seems to be at an all time high. I grew up in the country here and didn't see a deer for years at a time. Now they're everywhere--in the middle of developed suburbs, parks, not even to mention rural areas.

25,006 deer-vehicle crashes

My goodness, pretty soon GEICO won't insure deer-vehicles any more.

Asphalted whitetails - Over the last twenty years, my wife and I have killed one with the Astro van, three with two different Plymough Voyagers, four for the Chevy S-10, one and a probable to the Pontiac Grand Am, and a double-verified double kill with a Taurus. Wacked the deer and slid into a guy’s front yard & permanently defoliated his Japanese Maple in that particular instance.

We attended our niece's wedding a month ago in south-central Illinois. Deer everywhere. Found out that almost nobody in that particular county hunted and we went to a local gun/sporting guns shop to inquire about getting a non-resident deer tag. We were met with little information, but finally pryed out of the guy that it was a lottery draw for even a doe tag and not that many tags are issued to out-of-staters.

It could be a win-win situation ... lots of cash pumped into the local economy by non-residents and fewer deer with which to collide. Apparently, it makes no sense to the liberals in charge.
