Under the province’s wildlife act, it is illegal to “worry, exhaust, fatigue, annoy, plague, pester, tease or torment” an animal
I also want to be protected by this act, please!
Humans are animals, so it technically should.
court case of the century!
It annoys me that you pointed out my shortsightedness. Straight to jail with you!
I love America reporting.

“Local man from Chivington saves eagle” like we know where this ghost town is so we don’t need a state or country suffix.
-
“Deer in Canada”, just “Canada”, like it wouldn’t even USE town names or regions or provinces because it’s some tiny country instead of the second largest country on the planet.
Just Canada.
No need to be more exact. If a news guy isn’t waving his hand like an old man from a chair giving directions, then is it really talking about <wave hand> Canada?
I’m assuming it’s near one of the populated parts which narrows it down significantly.
Hey now, if a fellow freedom-haver from east of Colorado asks where I’m from, I just say north of Seattle, because they both do not care and also do not know anything about my state. If I say I’m from the “South Vancouver Trader Joe’s unincorporated district”, there is a better chance of a Canadian knowing where I am from than even someone from Seattle…

…‘Who is responsible?’
Obviously the deer is very responsible, he’s wearing proper PPE.
How can it be both in a hi-viz vest but also elusive? Is the vest not doing its job? 🤔
‘Who is responsible?’
No ideer.
I’d bet this is someone’s “pet” deer that they don’t want shot and are trying to signal that. I’ve heard of people putting reflective collars and things like that on deer that they’ve kept as pets, to try to deter hunters from shooting them.
If that’s what it is then I totally get the impulse to help a wild animal yourself, but the average person VASTLY overestimates their knowledge of what wildlife needs to be healthy. Always contact a wildlife rehabber if you find wildlife in distress!
Putting a collar on a wild animal to protect it from being shot is a pretty pathetic attempt at protecting something you care about.
I’d put a high vis jacket on my kids, but I wouldn’t then send them off to play in traffic.
That would definitely explain how they got it on the deer in the first place.
Deer are pretty easy to socialize. Start with salt lick.
exactly how elusive? it’s wearing a high vis jacket should be pretty easy to spot at night
