Road Kill

Filed under: Fauna, Vegtable soup by Kevin Griffiths — Leave a comment

Deer are particularly bad to hit with a car as sometimes the height is about right to roll the deer up the hood of the car and the body fits the windshield about right. Serious damage can occur as well as injury.The city workers were on the Voght street right of way yesterday morning removing a small to medium-sized mule deer from the ditch. With out ceremony its body was placed in the bucket of a back hoe to be taken to city land above current cemetery for burial. The worker in charge said they are no longer to put them in the local landfill.

He also said its the first one he has had to deal with but there are many deer about in the night. We assume speeds are not enough to catch deer by surprise ,as out on the highway. The freeway is fenced both sides with high fences against deer and moose and some underpasses are provided for them however that may not always prevent an animal that can cover a lot of distance in a night from coming on the highway near a town and continuing well into the freeway. Be where, of speeds at night that may over drive your headlights.
