"he who hits a deer is an idiot who deserves to die." ?!?
This type of ignorance is inexcusable and you should be ashamed of
yourself for thinking you know anything about the people who have had
the misfortune of being injured and also killed by accidents of this
type.

I wonder whether the shadow of concern about chronic wasting disease
nationwide has caused this change. Perhaps, the state that owns the
deer feels it might have to take responsibility for feeding
well-meaning citizens tainted meat. They may feel this way whether
CWD is present locally or not. There is speculation that roadkilled
deer are less wary and agile than those that avoided being hit because
of stress factors including CWD.
