Our neighbor did this once. Their 4-year old daughter called me over
the phone, crying hysterically that there was a bear in her garage and
nobody else was home.


For starters, it's exceedingly irresponsible to leave a
child of that age home alone. I hate to see anything like
that...

So far, the deer here in rural northcentral PA don't seem to
be made from the same cloth as the brazen NJ deer. So far.

The deer in non "big city" PA were bred to maintain a certain level of
respect... ;-)

Hm. Here in E. Nebraska, deer aren't as big a problem as they are a little
further to the east, where there are significant woodland areas, though they
do inhabit greenbelts and river valleys.

That said, there have been numberous reports in the past couple years of
*mountain lions* in eastern Nebraska and western Iowa - a year or so ago,
someone actually hit and killed a lion on the road in western Iowa, and
there've been a number of reports from eastern Iowa as well. I'd imagine
that a few dozen cougars would help the deer problem signifncantly. : )
