I have been living and hunting in Ohio all of my life. Something I have noticed this year that I've never really seen before, Is an astronomical amount of deer movement this spring-it looks like the chase of the rut. For example, this mourning I drove to a local plaza to grocery shop, and I probably seen around 18 deer-the catch is alot of them were in places I'd never see deer-railroad beds, on or near highways, even in the middle of a local trailer court. The amount of road kill is up lately to...I saw those 18 deer in a 16 mile round trip. I dont think that they are overpopulated, but the density per acre is way to high. It seems that alot of smaller farms have been consumed by high dollar construction outfits(not anything wrong with this), and condo's built in they're place. Could this be the problem? It seems this way in Columbiana, Mahoning and Jefferson co.'s the same. I would like to hear some other opinions on this subject
