Municipality Deer Control

deer-control Deer conflicts that arise in cities is inevitable, as human expansion and carrying capacity of deer in areas are on a conflict course. Deer management is not short term, but rather a long term management encompassing ordinances, regulations, liabilities, and questions many departments do not have answers for. Management should be started with a member of the state wildlife agency. Although they do not implement control, they do oversee the regulations of control of white-tail deer. In addition, you would need to make contact with a private wildlife professional, such as Animal Pros, and a federal wildlife agent. Deer control is new to Tennessee, and as of now, even the state does not have a answer for addressing the problem. Currently Tennessee Wildlife Resource Agency does not allow private wildlife control operators to charge a fee for control of big game like deer. According to the TWRA, they will permit a private company approval, if no fee is charged. However being a for-profit full service wildlife control company, and the incurring costs, and time required to successfully achieve a deer management plan, cooperative measures must be made to come up with a solution to the increasing human – wildlife conflicts of deer that are present in many cities around the area. With Deer problems on the rise as we move into areas they once inhabited, problems will continue to increase. Tennessee Wildlife Resource Agency should revisit their stance on private sector involvement, as most states are utilizing private sector involvement. The TWRA does permit individual property owners with depredation permits for control, as we can help with depredation problems at no charge. That would be pending on approval from TWRA, and on a site evaluation.

Identification

The white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) is one of the most recognized big-game mammals in North America. Deer are even-toed ungulates of the family Cervidae. Adult deer can weigh up to 300 lbs, depending on the location. Baby deer, called fawns, are born with brown-fur with white spots, which they loose the white spots around four months later. Deer fur may range in shades from dark brown or gray in fall to dark orangish-brown in spring and summer. White patches of hair can be observed on white-tail deer at all times of the year on the chin, throat, inside of the ears, belly, interior of the legs, and tail. Antlers grow on male deer called (Bucks) from April to August. Bucks will shed those antlers starting in late January, and begin the process to regrow larger antlers. During the antler development, bucks antlers will have velvet up till August and September, until the velvet dries annd is rubbed off. Female deer called (Does), do not grow antlers.
