In a “Message from Mayor and Council” on the Oak Bay website, the mayor states 40 deer died as a result of car collisions and other injury-related events in Oak Bay in 2013. These numbers are up from 23 deaths in 2012. Again, according to ICBC, there were only 10 motor vehicle accidents involving deer in Oak Bay in 2012.
Where did the number 23 come from? Why is the public being fed this misinformation?
