Hunters are readying their bows and arrows for the first deer hunt within Thunder Bays city limits and most residents arent complaining.
An influx of deer living in the city over the past few years led to daily collisions between motor vehicles and Bambi, more bear and wolf sightings and fears of ticks and lime disease.
The city didnt want to cull the deer or feed them fertility drugs, so council sanctioned an
urban deer hunting season to try to control the problem, said Ron Bourret, the citys manager of bylaw enforcement.
From Sept. 1 to Dec. 15, people with valid hunting licenses will be allowed to use cross bows, compound bows, recurve bows and long bows to hunt deer on private property in the citys rural and semirural areas.
Guns are still forbidden.
