As fall approaches, so does rutting season—the period when many animals, particularly deer, are most active as they mate. This season typically spans October, November, and December, with animal movement peaking around dawn and dusk. During this time, you'll notice more wildlife near roadways, increasing the risk of collisions. To stay safe, experts recommend slowing down in areas marked with animal crossing signs. Keep in mind that many animals travel in groups, so if you spot one, others are likely nearby. Reducing speed and remaining cautious can significantly lower the risk of accidents during this busy season for wildlife.
If you’re involved in an accident with wildlife or another vehicle, be sure to contact the maintenance department as soon as possible to assess the damage and ensure your safety on the road.
