TLA’s Deer Management Program

Nov 20, 2024 | Archived Emails

Did you know The Landings Association operates a Deer Management Program, working with our local representative of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, to safely remove as many deer as possible?

At this time of year, the deer density is relatively high because GADNR regulations prohibit culling female deer while they are actively nursing fawns, and fawns are not yet self-sufficient. TLA stops culling doe when the first fawn is sighted in the spring, and resumes culling all sexes in the fall/winter months. 

TLA monitors the deer population by taking nighttime surveys, and we carefully remove 100-200+ deer each year, as shown in the chart below. The numbers in the chart do not include deer that are struck by vehicles or die naturally. Please click here to read more about TLA’s Deer Management Program.
