I travelled to and from Williams Lake the other day and noticed around the Pioneer log house building site, they have cleared a large area behind it. I also noticed, what I thought at first, was a large herd of cattle. Taking a second look it was not cattle but deer. It's been a long time since I have seen so many deer together in one place.
Now this got me to thinking: What is going to happen come spring? Oh yes it will eventually come. Very likely the deer will be heading down to the road. You all know what this means. Dead deer, and lots of vehicle damage. Hopefully that will be all.
It would be nice if the highways folks, or the contractor for that matter, used a little bit of common sense and forethought. It would seem logical that the placing of deer reflectors at that location would go a long way to cutting down the potential carnage.
Some food for thought!
