There are more deer in Eau Claire.
The latest survey from the city’s parks department shows a 12 percent increase in deer in the city since 2018. The survey says the areas near Jeffers Road and Oakwood Hills both saw large increases in the number of deer. Parks Director Steve Plaza says it looks like more people may be feeding the deer, which only increases the number of deer in Eau Claire. He says the city doesn’t want people feeding the deer.
