The gun deer hunting season is right around the corner, and Wisconsin's deer population is on the move.
As civic media's Maddie Schaefer tells us, that means drivers need to be on the lookout now more than ever.
Drivers across Wisconsin are being reminded to watch for deer as the fall mating season gets underway.
The Wisconsin State Patrol says deer are on the move this time of year, increasing the risk of crashes, especially around dawn and dusk.
Last year, Wisconsin recorded more than 17,000 deer-related crashes, resulting in six deaths and more than 700 injuries.
About 42% of those crashes happened between October and December, with November seeing the highest number.
State Patrol Superintendent Tim Carnahan says drivers should keep an eye on the road ahead, especially as the days get shorter and deer become harder to spot.
Drivers are reminded to slow down when approaching deer near the road and watch for others that may follow.
If a collision is unavoidable, the State Patrol says to brake firmly and stay in your lane rather than swerving, which could lead to a more serious crash.
And if you do hit a deer, you should pull over safely and call 911 if someone is injured or the deer is blocking the road.

The state patrol is also reminding drivers to never approach or try to move an injured deer.
And that's your state news update.
