The City of Horseshoe Bay is widely known for its heavy population of urban deer. For the most part, deer are considered to be a desirable asset for the City.
Abnormally large deer populations in suburbs have become a common problem throughout the United States. Deer proliferate in suburban areas, which are void of natural predators and abundant with lush lawns and tasty landscape shrubs.
Every spring, the Horseshoe Bay Police Department receives dozens of calls from residents who see a fawn alone and assume that it is abandoned and needs our help. The reality is usually very different.
