Deer are the most dangerous animal in the USA. About 130 people are killed each year by car accidents with deer. There are about 1.5 million deer/vehicle collisions annually, resulting in 29,000 human injuries and more than $1 billion in insurance claims in addition to the death toll. Deer also carry the ticks that transmit Lyme disease to about 13,000 people each year. Economic damage to agriculture, timber, and landscaping by deer totals more than $1.2 billion a year.
Bambi is not so cute when you look at the statistics.
