Due to over-harvesting, the White-Tailed Deer population in our area was reduced to dangerous levels by the 1970s. To rescue the species from near extinction, the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency embarked on a colossal undertaking to relocate deer to our area from West Tennessee, Virginia and Wisconsin.

These efforts were successful and today Sullivan County has grown from having virtually no White-Tailed Deer to a healthy population today.

However, an abundance of deer in our region has led to other issues and problems for residents. Namely, keeping deer out of our gardens and avoiding them while driving through town.

The Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency offers some advice for residents hoping to keep deer out of their yards, such as planting deer-resistant plants, spraying foliage with deer repellent, removing bird feeders, erecting a garden fence, installing motion-activated sprinklers and using statues of owls or coyotes or playing music outside at night.

And be sure to periodically move the sprinklers and statues because the deer will get used to them and avoid them in the future.

Of animals commonly hit by motorists in the United States, deer ranks number one (an estimated 1.3 million collisions a year). White-Tailed Deer are crepuscular animals, meaning they are most active during the twilight hours of dawn and dusk.

Those are the times motorists should be most vigilant for deer, the TWRA says.

Follow the speed limit, use your headlights during those times and motorists should heed any deer crossing signs they come across. If one deer crosses the road, then slow down. Deer tends to travel in family units.

Knowing how to operate a car and being ready to drive independently are NOT the same thing.
Real confidence comes from experience, good instruction, and demonstrating that you are able to make decisions, handle different environments and situations, and showing that you can stay in control without constantly relying on someone else.

We help students of all backgrounds prepare to become safe, confident, and in-control drivers.
