Every fall, Michigan’s roads turn into a battlefield. On one side, Mitten State drivers are doing what we can to avoid giant chasms (other states have smaller ones referred to as potholes), and on the other side, Michigan’s herd of 2 million or so deer who seemingly choose to have the majority of their meals roadside. The real fun kicks in between October and December, when whitetail deer decide they own the roads, and your odds of hitting one are at their best.
