I love how deer are exotic to city folk.

Last year a friend sent me a picture of a deer in Liberty State Park and said “a reindeer came here!”

… a grown-ass man.

… floored by the exotic qualities of a garden-variety deer.

… it must be a reindeer!

Bro it’s not normal in JC. Smh. If you grew up in Hudson county it’s like what are the odds of seeing a deer. Skunks possums raccoons yes deer no it’s not farm town NJ.

Never lived in or been to a farm town and still seen tons of deer. They’re overpopulated actually. Sorry I just couldn’t help but chuckle at this post lol.

It only means the park is cleaner than it was when I was a child. The deer at Dickinson have been migrating through there because of the tunnels for a very long time. So let me rephrase it was not normal before because of the highly contaminated areas.

I am surprised that with all the development going on the deer return in increasing populations.

With lots of chill town pride love and sarcasm don’t take Reddit to the heart, unless it’s holding the local politicians accountable for their actions❤️

You’ll be seeing a lot more of them in the next couple weeks. Especially in the road.

Have seen fox, pheasant, possum, raccoon, deer, rabbit, rats, of course, a skunk, heron, and wild turkey in LSP. It’s like Fantasia up in there.

We used to be safe from Lyme disease. I've seen ticks in LSP but hope they're not infected.
