Landowners should fence 'game preserve'

| November 29, 2004 8:00 PM

Since a group of landowners south of Sandpoint in the Bottle Bay area have designated themselves to be a game preserve, I think they should be responsible for fencing that stretch of highway. A total of 210 people were killed last year in deer strikes and I have seen at least four at that area. When I drove by the other day, there looked to be at least 50 deer in the field next to Highway 95. If you want to protect them, do it responsibly and don't subject me or my friends and family to the danger of hitting them with a car.
