This topic is for those that ride there scooters all year round..
Deer season is here, which means deer will be moving across roadways more often for a couple of reasons.
Deer normally travel in the dark when not in there mating season. The mating season has begun due to the days are shorter and this has turned on there inner clock to mate. The mating season usually starts in October, November being its PEAK season and last into the end of December which is known as 2nd rut season.
1) Its mating season for the deer. The male deer will chase other deer out of there territory if there is a female in heat. This will cause the male deer that was ran out of his normal territory to find a new home which may lead him to crossing roads for other woods.
The doe will be chased by the male deer which may lead to them running across the road and NO they dont care if its a highway with a 60,000 lbs 18 wheelers rolling 80mph or you on your lil scooter buzzing along at 35MPH THEY will run out in front of you to get away the male deer chasing.
So becareful ALL times of the day! Doesnt matter when a doe comes in estrus which usually last 36 hours she will attract every male deer downwind and the chase begins.
Warning: If 1 deer runs out in front of you,, chances are more are coming behind in the chase!!
