I was walking my dog this morning when we noticed a deer ahead in the road, several hundred feet away. So we stopped and turned around to go the other way. I looked back after turning and realized it was aggressively running at us. Fortunately I am young and am able to run. But others in my neighborhood may not be so fortunate. This is completely unacceptable. I know that this is likely a doe protecting a fawn nearby, but I find this unacceptable as a citizen trying to use a public road to walk. It’s outrageous. Had I not seen it running at us it could have attacked and killed my dog, as they have been known to do, or attacked me.
