White-tailed Deer often have serious urban overpopulation issues because we removed many of their natural predators (ultimately increasing human-wildlife conflict and hurting deer too).

And just like that, we're back to the school run and the usual grind 🤯.

How did you get to school today? Did you know that travelling actively to school improves mood, behaviour & confidence, increases attention levels & enhances performance?

Here's to a new school year!
