"Deer have become almost a nuisance species closer in to Chicago."

Bloody locals, pissing around as though they own the place. Let's blast them to Kingdom Come ... hmmm tree huggers and kumbaya.

You've actually seen wildlife? Soz!

I’m in River Forest and the deer are a pain to deal with. They eat your plants, they’re not afraid of people (because they get hand feed) and they get hit by cars.

They’re lacking their natural predators — and the logical solution of introducing them is ruled out because the local forest preserves aren’t large enough to support wolf packs.

Maybe the coyotes will figure out how to take them down.
