I live on ridge road near the horse farm , this time of year it’s not uncommon to see a vehicle killed deer on the side of the road ,, usually it gets picked up or eaten by buzzards. I discovered a large deer two weeks ago that must have been killed by a vehicle and tossed over the guard rail at 2425 ridge road into the deep hole of the creek next to the road . Does anyone know who to call to have it removed as it will be there a long time in the cooler weather.
