Deer NY Times...

Ronda Kaysen writes in the NY Times saying that "deer make the worst neighbors." ONe response included a more appreciative neighbor:

“They’re like these mystical creatures,” she said. “They’re like unicorns.”

But in the past the paper has suggested other responses including:
Counting 
Deer fences
Sterilization

The NY Times archives even includes a letter from Joyce Carol Oates about the deer hunt in Princeton.
