Michigan Department of Natural Resources Has A Message For Upper Peninsula Drivers

As the calendar moves from the winter months to spring, the Michigan Department of Natural Resources Wildlife Division officials are urging motorists in the Upper Peninsula to be mindful of increased deer movement.

Deer are moving from deer wintering complexes in many areas back to the areas they occupy during the spring and summer. As a result, deer movement has increased over the past few days.

Motorists are urged to remain alert, anticipate deer crossing roads, and use extra caution behind the wheel.
