Title: Young Deer at Presqu'ile PP - Alert!
Post by: Anonymous on February 14, 2010, 10:14:18 AM

Something caught this young deer's attention off in the distance, not sure of what it was.  Was part of a herd of 4 deer located on the calf pasture.

I heard they culled the deer from Presquile as part of their efforts at reforestation.  I guess they didn't tell all the deer!

It's an ongoing cull that was suspended for 2009 as the park is regenerating itself and the deer are healthy once again.
