I'm sure it's quite different. Vancouver Island has a large deer population. Regarding the deer and traffic - these deer are very intelligent and have learned to adapt. Cars and trucks are their only natural predators in this neighbourhood.

This particular little family of deer made the front page of the local newspaper last week. About one block from here there is a very busy intersection with lots of traffic. These deer were photographed crossing the intersection at a pedestrian crosswalk. They waited for the green light and calmly walked between the white lines, crossing four lanes of traffic.... and then, and I swear I'm not making this up, they waited for the light to change again and did it once more!
