This is totally true and the fact that people think they are cute and
wont shoot them makes it worse.
 
Bloody lethal in a crash. Usually a write off at any speed. If you see
one, stop. It runs across in front of you and the rest all follow
blindly.
 
Like bloody socialists.

The state when I grew up had a Conservation Department that begged people
to go out and shoot the damned deer. Every winter the newspaper would run
articles showing hundreds of deer yarded up in deep snow and starving. Do-
gooders would arrange hay to be dropped from helicopters. Next year, more
starving deer.

A few decades ago, I was informed of at least one case where
do-gooders had left hay for an overpopulation of deer.  The deer
continued to die.  Analysis showed the deer starved to death with
full stomachs, because their digestive systems lacked the enzymes
to digest the types of hay that were being left for them.
