MOTORISTS…WATCH OUT FOR DEER!

DOVER (Oct. 31, 2014) – Shorter fall days – especially after daylight savings time changes on Sunday, Nov. 2 – mean more 9-to-5 workers will be driving home at dusk, and DNREC’s Division of Fish & Wildlife reminds all Delaware motorists to remain alert for deer crossing roadways.

\”At the end of our day, we might be heading home to relax, but deer are just beginning their busiest time around dusk,\” said Division of Fish & Wildlife Game Mammal Biologist Joe Rogerson. \”From dusk up to midnight and shortly before and after sunrise, are when motorists need to be especially alert and watch for deer.\”
