Beware of deer!

Yesterday while walking along Lac Le Jeune Drive West our dog Rosey had the fright of her life. Running free she scented deer and joyously ran off the road into the underbrush where almost immediately several deer were startled across the road and onto the other side. With her head high and a prancing step, she thought she had successfully routed them and turned to return proudly to us when the doe wheeled around and headed back to confront Rosey. We didn’t have a camera to record the deer chasing Rosey back along the road to us. Although the deer confined herself to standing on the edge of the road and watching us leave the area she could have been more aggressive in protecting her fawns. So better keep your dogs under control on La Le Jeune Drive West, not bear, not moose but aggressive deer!
