I was disturbed to read of growing concern over the urban deer population in Greater Victoria and resulting collection of data.
Given that we are in fact encroaching on their environment, the only “danger” I see is increased human greed, fast traffic and gardens that grow enticing food for wildlife.
May I respectfully suggest that individuals who are concerned about the “dangers” these creatures pose move to Toronto, where they can enjoy the concrete, asphalt and skyscraper buildings along with an occasional raccoon.
