What $ Walcat?  How much, if any, does the PGC get out of this scenario?  

FINALLY! Someone with some common sense has entered the building. That makes my day!

Two easy steps wash car with deer repellant, use the two round things on each side of nose and slow down! As for the forest they belong there!!!!!

Residents of Mt. Lebanon should be thankful they are not inundated by Canadian Geese or, those d^m seagulls!

Walcat, what other alternate solutions did they have at that time?                                                                                   

Could have been handled in a more favorable way more in tune with true sportsman not the snooty upstart rich stuck up snobs in ML !!!!!!!!!!

You don't get it?  The residents wouldn't allow true sportsmen to handle it.  When the commissioners decided to allow the township employees to archery hunt, all of the county tags were gone so it never had a chance to help the situation.  What options were left?   

Not sure anybody is against the 'culling of the deer' in Mt. Lebanon; just the 'manner' in which the officials tried, in reducing the herd.  In addition, people became upset by the lame excuses as to why other means of 'culling' could not be used.
 
While the chosen method may work well in other municipalities, it certainly met opposition in Mt. Lebanon, PA. 
 
Back to the drawing board.
 
 

I understand driving in city is different,its been awhile but if I'm right, go pedals on the right slow down pedal on left! But you are still right, I didn't have to buy a car that parrell parks itself, slows down or brakes before crashing,has alarms in case someone is to close to me,has camera so I don't have to turn my head to see what's behind me and now I see Ford has one that will read the speed limit signs and adjust your speed. Think they'll come up with radar that will warn drivers there's a deer within 100 yds of you? I've driven below the posted speed and yes I heard the horns blowing,had people pass yelling and cursing at me, had them cut in front of me but cant find one scare on me from any of this,might be because I was in a 80,000# truck ,but I remember driving the same way in my car after being in a big rig for several weeks or months, still no scares

Walleye jigs, there are many city roads in the Pittsburgh area with wooded lots that run on both sides of the roads and there's deer crossing signs posted on many of those roads.  The average driver does use common sense when they travel these roads and see the deer crossing signs. 
 
The problem is when you're traveling 20-25 mph in a residential area of Mt Lebanon and without warning the deer dart out between yards into the street right in front of the unsuspecting driver.  How does one prevent that from happening?  There has been hundreds of incidents like that that has occurred in Mt Lebanon in the last couple of years.
 
The commissioners will have to implement some sort of archery hunt next fall but the areas to archery hunt in are limited in size and I really don't see the bowhunters  harvesting many.  We'll see?

I totally agree something has to be done for those people but I listen to one of their residents on the news just who stated culling the herd is the ONLY solution, well if that true than why not use. the real words? KILLING the deer is the only solution! God forbid their kids think their evil for killing off the deer. Legal bow hunts, sterilization and relocation are still options. How dead or dying deer have the found over there on the road that. Died because of CWD or any other deseae other than road rash or fender
