...and they are tick transport vehicles. I can't walk on grass any more without suiting and booting up.
FWIW, there are more deer now than when the white man came to North America....because lawns.

And the lack of wolves and mountain lions in the eastern US.

DA, and places where hunting is frowned upon.

Yea, the suburbanite complaints about Bambi eating their shrubs and then complaining when someone aces Bambi is hilarious.

My dad and my brother both liked to eat those hoofed rats, but I never really liked venison very much. They made some deer jerky that I ate a lot of, once, though.
And, yeah, I was seriously grossed out by the parasites. Butchering them wasn't a big deal, way easier than a hog or a cow, but the fleas and ticks made me want to run and hide the dogs.

This is from a USDA fact sheet about white-tailed deer in NJ:


https://www.nrcs.usda.gov/Internet/FSE_DOCUMENTS/nrcs141p2_017804.pdf

After European settlement, unregulated harvest of deer led to a significant decrease in the species, but many environmental and social changes have since led to a population explosion. In the early 1900s, strict regulatory action was implemented in many eastern states in an effort to increase the deer population. This effort was highly successful, but as the population recovered, large predators, such as the eastern cougar, were hunted in many areas to local extinction. (Ed)
