Worthless without an idea of types of animals and the real danger posed by these animals, if any , that is posed for an alert driver...dogs? cats? squirrels? deer? bunny rabbits? pheasants? flying purple people eaters?

They should move the Deer Crossing signs to areas that have less traffic. Problem solved.

Alternatively, stop collecting statistics about the problem and watch it disappear. Will people never learn?

Having many more squirrels than moose makes a difference in the fatality rates for people hitting animals with cars.

The fatality rate for every animal I've ever hit has been 100%. I swear some if them think under my tire is a great place to hide from my truck.
