As the number of deer continue to increase, it is likely that deer-related conflicts will continue to increase. Habitat will degrade and in the long run, the deer will suffer as the population becomes malnourished, unhealthy, and susceptible to disease and starvation. The County's Deer Management Plan outlines methods of population reduction for public and private lands. The goal of Montgomery County's Deer Management Plan is to reduce human-deer conflicts to a level that is compatible with human priorities and land uses. In this way, citizens and white-tailed deer can live in harmony and deer will remain a cherished part of our County's natural landscape.
Dates are determined each year during the summer.
