It likely helps more of the herds survive. Around here though they'll have decent browse most of the winter anyway.

Yea like the ones me and Munchkin saw in your neighborhood. You got good hunting about 5 blocks away. Of course the city LEO might frown a little bit.

deer are very adaptable. They have been prey for a very long time and it is genetics that make them wary. some have even learned to look up due to being hunted from tree stands and it is thought they are passing this to the next generation.
