Deer Crossing
You'll love this. This morning our manager came in and told that now on one of the State Routes near here they have send two people to act as crossing gaurds for DEER! Yes there is a nice field of corn that the farmer didn't get in and there have been some deer hit there. Two weeks ago they put up bigger signs and flags as the Deer have worn a path in to the snow where they are crossing. They are using radios and are stopping traffic for them to cross. Only in NY!!!

Deer Crossing
In Michigan back in the early '70's there were highway signs that said, "DEER CROSS HERE." At the time I sort of wondered if there were deer police that popped out of the bushes and gave offending deer tickets for j-walking. But then, I don't know how much of a literacy rate you could expect among deer. Deer police and deer crossing guards--what more could be asked from a drive in the country. Nice work if you can get it though.

Had to send another one. Got too snickering after I posted... A year or so ago a group of PETA (people for ethica treatment of animals) comming out of Mass? or NY? after a big rally... hit a deer on the thru way... lawsuit started toward state because they have failed to do more to control the deer population and keep them out of the roads... TOO MANY WHACKO's out there...

Harvey;
I guess you could issue the PETA people with a bag of rubber population contol units and get them to hunt and apply them during the rut.
Don't discount this idea, it could releave the the law suit problem, but not in the manner PETA might envision.
Naturally it would be more effective if we sent them after the ones with the larger racks, like Bullwinkle.

I don't think the farmer will be laughing if they decide to allow the guards to remain in to the summer.

In KY you could shoot the deer at any time of the year if they were distroying your crops.
I keep thinking of having the state set up the crossing guards and the farmer nailing them as they crossed into his field.
