We humans cannot change the behavior of the deer. The only way to prevent accidents is for humans to be careful of deer.

Well no, you could also hunt the Ezo Sika Deer to extinction like you did to the Ezo Wolf. But it's probably easier to just be more careful when driving.

You're encroaching on the deer's territory. They have right of way so maybe learn to drive with all your senses open.
