They are prolific critters too. Despite urban- and suburban sprawl there’s more wooded areas all the time, not to mention seasonal corn fields which are great hang-out spots for deer, coyote, fox, you name it.
I had the pleasure of having a fawn outside my window for a whole day last year. I knew enough not to try to “rescue” it, and it was delightful to see it there for the entire day. I love the deer, but really, they’re not endangered, and I don’t understand what the problem is with hunters crossing state lines to hunt them in season. As you say, they are prolific.
