I've seen three deer dead along the highway on the way to work the last two weeks, a 1.5 yr old buck, a doe and one ground into beyond recognition burger on I80.
I think as the deer herd shrinks, drivers become complacent and let their guard down. So they basically hit about as many as when there are more deer.

But I don't think FB is going to back off the deer herd "problem".Iowa’s declining position in the annual State Farm claims data report also supports a decreasing risk of deer-vehicle collisions.
