They are totalling vehicles and insurance companies are having to pay for that; they are killing people on the interstates. The next time you travel I-65 look at the dead deer by the roadside where cars have hit them so a fence doesn't stop them. Only by killing more will be survive ourselves. It is so dangerous to go anyplace now day or night. We all need to wirte Fish & Wildlife agencies and voice our opinion - our representatives in congress could care less. All they want is a paycheck with a retirement hung on it. i'M GOING TO START WRITING LETTERS AND NEED HELP WITH IT ALSO.

I am not sure how effective they are during the rut, but I know people in Michigan use them and they seem to cut down the number of accidents with deer there. Each year there are many deer related accidents that damage cars and injure people. It seems someone would come up with a way to minimize this. Opportunity knocks if anyone out there wants a business opportunity! There are electronic devices that repel deer.

Rigby and Ann Rolin. They are two of my best friends and very loved by this community & always doing things for children and just being awesome friends. JR has awful road rash on his face-it is black as if he were burned and an awful black eye that is just a slit and also re-injured his knee that was already in bad shape. Ms Ann has road rash on her nose, wrists, leg. I'm so grateful they are ok. According to them there were 2 deer, the one that ran out in front of the Focus and another one ran in front of J.R.'s Sportster. They were going to take one of the deer themselves but someone else got it! They thank everyone for the prayers!! Thanks for the prayers for the bikers, J.R. Rigby and Ann Rolin.

A deer ran into the path of my daughter-in-law's car last night. She was leaving Molino, going to Robersdale. This is a scary time of year to be driving at night. You are both, NF and ROOT, correct.

Had someone hit a deer by the house Saturday night. Deer left and truck was fine, but you certainly have to be careful!!! Hope all from this incident will be okay.
