By Jayna Smith

A trip around Calais on just about any given day will likely lead to deer sightings.  They can be seen in backyards, behind stores, in fields, and sometimes, roaming the streets.

 It may appear to some that Calais has a considerable number of deer within city limits.  With destruction of gardens, motor vehicle accidents, and ticks and Lyme disease, it does raise the question—should we be concerned about the deer population in Calais?
