Probably not global warming/greenhouse effect. The cycles are what they are and we're at a phase where things are simply bizarre - very similar to what we went through about 20 years ago.
In Oklahoma, we're seeing a 20% decrease in the kill numbers. The seasons, as of this month, are over here and the Department of Wildlife Conservation is considering increasing the days whitetail hunting is available.
Well I'll be damned, an Okie I can agree with. No Global Warming at work here, just normal shifts in the weather patterns, that's all.
Deer in the suburbs are more likely there due to excessive building, deforestation due to development and fire, more than anything else. They gotta find a wind break somewhere, so the gather in the warmth of the 'burbs.
It is a common fact that populated areas with concrete and buildings hold heat much better and longer than undeveloped rural areas. Where would you rather be when it is cold? Where it is warmer I'll bet
