Methinks its too bad so sad that CBC the Crown Corp Mr Jones works has
blocked my right to free speech in a domain financed y taxpayer funds
or I would tell Mikey Holland and his buddy David Berg a thing or two
about rocket science, salt, clear cutting, spraying and flooding etc
etc It would be fun stuff to point out particularly now that Hollan's
lawyer buddy Johnny "Never Been Good" Furey left NB Power and works
with the Irving's latest favourite lawyer Lenny Hoyt N'esy Pas?

Cloven-hoofed mystery: Bathurst streets suddenly bristling with mobs of deer
'We don't usually get a lot of deer here,' mayor says of downtown herd that's become the talk of social media
· CBC News · Posted: Mar 15, 2021 5:07 PM AT
Deer, a rare sight in the streets of Bathurst, have been clogging the downtown lately and no one seems to know why. (Submitted by Tyler James Ells)
A set of videos and photos posted to Facebook has sparked excitement and chatter on a subject that, to many New Brunswickers, might seem unsurprising.
Deer spotted on the street? Isn't that kind of like spotting sand at the beach?
But these photos were taken in Bathurst, which is not exactly a hotspot for deer and hasn't been for many years.
In the wildlife management area surrounding that northern New Brunswick city, deer hunting is closed, deer sightings are occasional and deer mobs are downright rare.
So when Tyler Ells saw a small herd of about 20 of the cloven-hoofed creatures prancing through the downtown core last week, he was agog.
He grabbed his phone and snapped some photos and a video, then posted
them on Facebook.
About 20 deer were spotted running through a hardware store parking lot in Bathurst over the weekend. 0:28
Photos, video shared more than 4,000 times
Almost immediately, the comments started coming in.
"Wow! Now that is beautiful!"
"Wonderful!"
"I saw this too!"
By the next day, his photos had been shared more than 3,000 times.
By the weekend, they had topped 4,000 shares, still climbing.
Ells said he was surprised by how much attention the post got but agreed it was "definitely an amazing sight."
"It's not very often you see them on the roads like that," he said.

Ells, seen here with his girlfriend, Vanessa Gionet, says he is
surprised by how many shares his deer video and pics have gotten. (Submitted by Tyler James Ells)
Acting Mayor Lee Stever said he has had a couple of "deer mob" sightings lately as well.
"We've all seen them in the past few weeks, almost every day," Stever said. "And it's funny, because they're right in our busiest section of town."
Stever said seeing that many deer, particularly in the streets, is "very unusual."
"The odd time you'll get a moose here," he said. "But not deer. There hasn't been deer hunting in northern New Brunswick for at least 30 years, so it's nice to see that the herd is strong and coming back."
Stever said there have been no complaints whatsoever from residents — aside from a few people worried the animals might get hit by a vehicle — and he has no idea what's driving them into the city.
A herd of about 18 to 20 deer has been spotted been roaming the streets of Bathurst lately. (Submitted by Tyler James Ells)
No surge in deer population, department says
The Department of Natural Resources and Energy Development said there has not been a surge in the deer population numbers in the Bathurst area, despite what the street-herd sighting might suggest.
"Deer numbers are average this winter compared to the previous winter," department spokesperson Nick Brown said in an email.
Brown said it's not unusual to see a few more deer in and around Bathurst as melting snow increases their ability to get around and "search for food," but he noted the volume of deer in the downtown core could be a safety issue.
"The main public safety concern with high deer densities near urban centres is an increased risk of deer-vehicle accidents," Brown said.
That's something Bathurst Coun. Penny Anderson worries about as well.
Anderson said she has seen deer struck by cars in the Tetagouche Hill area, about five kilometres from the downtown.
"There's a very high volume on that stretch of road," she said.
Given the sheer volume of deer roaming the downtown lately, Anderson worries those deer, too, could be at risk of being struck.
Anderson said she often sees deer in her own neighbourhood near the Gowan Brae golf course, but even she was surprised by Ells's downtown deer photos.
"It was quite the sight," she said.

Yup, just keep allowing Irving to clear-cut our forests, destroying
the deer yards and their food source and the deer will look for food
elsewhere. Responsible forestry management, responsible wildlife
management ; nope not in NB ; not if Irving has its' way.
Jeff Leblanc
Reply to @Mack Leigh: plenty of deer habitat in NB
Samual Johnston
Reply to @Mack Leigh: what about the the other forestry companies ?
There are a couple other ones that are really big
Richard Ginson
Reply to @Mack Leigh: agree with you sir. But would suggest that the
forestry management plan endorsed by so called DNR biologists is
universal to all major players. It's sad. This windshield observer
takes exception to Jeff Leblanc comment; not sure where he's at, but
speaking personally from zones 10, 11, 12, 16, and 17, a very healthy
deer herd from the 80's and 90's has been decimated to near zero.
Steve Dueck
Reply to @Samual Johnston: no tree replanting in NB.
Dave Shimla
Reply to @Richard Ginson: don't forget zone 18, 19 and 24. In those
zones, irving has cut all the forest around the deer winter yards and
sprayed so there is no hardwood feed for the deer. Then the deer move
on the following year for new yards. then irving cuts the deer yards.
Sweet plan its been going on since I was a young'in. I've seen this
happen over and over again and we just keep letting it happen.
Yves Savoie
After cutting deer yard after deer yard, and now they wonder
why.....And they want to talk to us about saving the planet. How
stupid can we be?
robert mallet
Too much clear cutting ,the deer as no place to go
David Berg
Reply to @robert mallet: Not true at all.
Dave Chabassol
Reply to @robert mallet: "No-one goes there anymore-It's too crowded.."
Buddy Best
No doubt driven from their home by Cutting and spraying. They are
becoming more domesticated every day. We are driving them out of the
woods.
David Berg
Reply to @Buddy Best: As if. They are doing better than ever out in
the country.
David Berg
They are there for the salt among other reasons. Whitetail Deer ALWAYS
herd up this time of year. They just happen to be in town this time.
Not rocket science. Salt, water availability in town is sooner in the
spring, and they congregate where it’s easier to get around than in
the bush where the snow is deeper longer.
David Berg
Funny the city people who get all excited to see a few deer, acting
unnaturally tame, in a foreign habitat. Just to be clear, don’t go by
how they are acting, and assume this is how dumb they are in the wild,
with regards to tame ness.
One thing I know for certain is that even David Coon and his buddy
Chucky Leblanc ain't as dumb as David Berg or Mindless Mikey Holland
or Johnny "Never Been Good" Furey
