I love how deer are exotic to city folk.

Yes that is indeed a deer. Lots of them in NJ.

I almost hit one that ran across the road in Fort Lee

You’ll be seeing a lot more of them in the next couple weeks. Especially in the road.

Context is everything. How often do you see CHUDs in the country?

How the hell did they get to Liberty State Park?

Are you not from New Jersey

plenty of foxes as well.

Looks like a great place for condos

For real doe?

Staten Island has thousands, I presume some can sneak across the bridge.

We used to be safe from Lyme disease. I've seen ticks in LSP but hope they're not infected.

2 off them nearly knocked me outta my citibike last week.

they're very common at LSP

Bro it’s not normal in JC. Smh. If you grew up in Hudson county it’s like what are the odds of seeing a deer. Skunks possums raccoons yes deer no it’s not farm town NJ.

Swim

Never lived in or been to a farm town and still seen tons of deer. They’re overpopulated actually. Sorry I just couldn’t help but chuckle at this post lol.

😅🫠

Still is! Bear and mountain lions too. 🫤

All the time on ocean

Oh deer!

Have seen fox, pheasant, possum, raccoon, deer, rabbit, rats, of course, a skunk, heron, and wild turkey in LSP. It’s like Fantasia up in there.

Oh dear

This caught me so off guard 😆

Last year a friend sent me a picture of a deer in Liberty State Park and said “a reindeer came here!”

… a grown-ass man.

… floored by the exotic qualities of a garden-variety deer.

… it must be a reindeer!

I guess it's the 'new normal', get over it. I spotted this deer family in the ravine below Dickinson high School

It only means the park is cleaner than it was when I was a child. The deer at Dickinson have been migrating through there because of the tunnels for a very long time. So let me rephrase it was not normal before because of the highly contaminated areas.

I am surprised that with all the development going on the deer return in increasing populations.

With lots of chill town pride love and sarcasm don’t take Reddit to the heart, unless it’s holding the local politicians accountable for their actions❤️
