Re: Mule deer stomps on woman

Kootenay community fed up with deer after woman mauled

The mauling of a Kimberley woman by an aggressive pair of deer has the southeast Kootenay community fed up and calling for help from the province to deal with a growing region-wide deer problem.

The attack, which sent the woman to hospital, happened in a residential area just steps away from the woman's front door while she walked her two small dogs.

Rick Humble, a neighbour, was working in his backyard with his wife Lynn McKim at noon on Monday when they heard screams coming from the street.

When they found the woman, "she was on her hands and knees trying to protect her pugs," Humble said.

They saw two mule deer stomping on the defenceless woman's back.

It's not a deer problem, but a human problem.

Don't forget the only animal that has killed someone in Yosemite, for the past hundred years or so anyway, has been a deer.
