“But whatever the reason, it’s certainly an issue in Paxton: 33 vehicle collisions with deer were reported in 2015, according to The Paxton Record.”
There are more than 33 car/deer accidents a WEEK in my county, if not more.
I drove on I-79 in SW PA one fall, and there was literally at least one dead deer per mile for about 30 miles. A couple of short stretches had three or four dead deer lined up on the shoulder.
