I'm surprised no one has pushed the liability side of this. The state regulates hunting, claiming "ownership" of game animals. Kind of like feudal England. So if they "own" them (so they can regulate us poor peasants' hunting of them), it seems they should be liable if "their" animals cause problems.
Deer have made a pretty remarkable comeback in the U.S. Some estimates claim there are actually more deer today than when Columbus landed. And now lots of folks have had enough; live with a good population of them for even just a little while, and they are not so adorable anymore. In addition to being a hazard on the road, they can cause significant property damage, and forget trying to have a garden. They eat everything.
