Doe’nt Go There!
August 27, 2008
The Baltimore City Department of Public Works issued a news release that took me by surprise, at least through my cursory glance at the headline, which said “COMMUNITY DEER MEETING.”
I’ve heard rumors that deer sometimes wander into the wooded areas of the city (one report of a deer in Guilford, which I frankly don’t believe). But are there enough deer in the city to merit a community deer meeting?
No.
This meeting, though put on by the city DPW, is actually regarding the Loch Raven Reservoir in Baltimore County. The reservoir is part of Baltimore’s water supply, so the city and county are working together on plans to control deer. The deer are eating too much of the new growth in the Loch Raven watershed, according to the release.
So has anybody ever seen a deer in Baltimore City?
