Our place is on several wooded acres, adjacent to a state park. Every so often though, and twice in the last week, we have had deer try to cross the highway and get killed by cars. Saturday morning one was lying dead right at the venue entrance, we had to remove it before anyone in the wedding party saw it. Would be a great way to start your wedding
Losing deer bothers me, because I'm in the forest enough I *know* these deer. I know the size of their herds, and some of them I've known for years, knew what their mommas looked like. There is a hunting plot a few acres away, I don't care as much if they are hunted and eaten. Roadkill is just a waste all around.
My guess is they are crossing for water. In winter though, they likely are looking for food.
To reduce the chances of dead, I'm willing to try feeding them and leaving a trough of water out up by the edge of the state park. In looking at all the options on Amazon, I want to know if any are better than others. I don't give a shite about antler size, most of ours are does.
Any tips appreciated, both in method, frequency, and placement.
