Department of Agriculture says new survey reveals action must be taken
During proceedings at Quebec superior court the judge heard from experts about how best to deal with an overpopulation of deer at the Michel-Chartrand park in Longueuil.
The deer cull program was designed to keep deer from overpopulating the area. But over time, its impact has become threefold by also helping to reduce the number of car-deer accidents and feeding families in need.
The city's allotted number of deer to cull has never exceeded 220.
Helena's animal control officers say the city's deer population has about doubled in the past year.
