As a New Zealander I must say I am very puzzled about the number of
Californian Medit members who have deer problems. Those New Zealanders who
live in rural areas (like us) would all have sheep or cow or deer or goat
problems if they did not build fences of some sort around their gardens.
Why don't Californians build deer proof fences? Are you not allowed to
build fences, or perhaps not fences high enough to stop a deer leaping
over? It reminds me of an old Canadian friend who had a problem with a BEAR
coming into her garden, which kept the whole neighbourhood indoors for a
while! And we think we have problems with the odd possum.
