Deer are fast becoming one of the most dangerous road hazards around the country, especially in Co.Wicklow.

With an over-population of deer in Ireland, the damage they are doing to horticulture and woodlands is becoming a serious problem according to a new report.

At the launch of the report "Developing a Collaborative Strategy for the Management and Control of Invasive Deer Species for County Wicklow" commissioned by the Wicklow Deer Management Group, it was revealed that the deer population in Ireland has drastically increased in recent years and they are now at the top of the wild food chain.

The damage caused to woodlands is estimated to be as high as €3,800 ($5,090) per annum.

Experts have said that if the over-population is managed properly it could be a great resource to the country. Venison in Ireland continues to be in great demand and income could be generated from the sporting element of hunting deer also.

NEWSLETTER (The P.R.O.C): Corkieleakia the southern branch of the of The Royal Daily Liar Newspaper has to-day released what can only be described as the illiterate delusional rantings of a megalomaniac, not seen in the western world since the release of Hitler’s book ..Mein Kampf.Like Mein Kampf the article is full delusional visions of grandeur, mixed with unintelligible ranting about Deer-skin’s and Garda-skin’s and paranoia about possible invasion of Dumpland.It also has a more sinister note in that the writer has visions of crowds of Jackeen’s laughing manically at a person been thrown into the river Whiffy from the new Feck it Bridge.A leading Psychologist was asked by the P.R.O.C newsletter, what it all means.The monocled Psychologist, Dr. Know-De-Loon said the interpretation was quite simple.While it is clear we are dealing with a dangerous megalomaniac, which is not all that uncommon in Dumpland. I feel it is certain key words in his scribbling’s that reveal his deep emotional problems. The key words are.. Pfizer Riser..Deer or Stag...P.r.i.c.k and the Feck It Bridge. In Sigmund Freuds own words he is suffering from a dysfunctional penis.His obsession is quite clear from the Stag which has horns and has virility to the drooping penis-like appendage on the new Feck It Bridge, aptly named by the Jackeen’s after they saw it. This dangerous megalomaniac with a frustrating dysfunctional penis needs to be removed from society as quickly as possible.

CORKIELEAKIA has today revealed the Truth regarding the events listed below which was posted erroneously, and was an account of the EXPECTED outcome which differs vastly from the ACTUAL events: Vis: ..... the Peoples Republic In Cork-Kerry (P.R.I.C.K) consumed with jealousy of the Pale, enraged by the failure of the ‘Deer-skin Scam’ and the loss of their man to a large Dublin Mountain Larch, vainly despatched another one disguised in a convincing Garda-skin, complete with Warrant Card which enabled him to enter the Pale without suspicion. .......... On beginning his inquiries, he found that nobody could understand a single word he was saying, and kept asking him to repeat himself as they collapsed with hysterical laughter at his attempts to speak The Queens English. A crowd soon gathered and threw him in the Liffey from the magnificent new Beckett Bridge. He sank straight to the bottom of the river. A local wit was heard to remark: “A Cork Garda should’ve floated more!”. ... P.R.I.C.K. have now accepted the supremacy of The Pale and are not planning to send any more eejits up there. ... The Genuine Garda who supplied the False Uniform has been stripped naked and locked in a shed with a half-mad whelp – also naked – who thinks he can write. .....A Garda spokesman said: “Shur ‘twill be the great crack whin dey bote gets ssthaaarvin’ hungry...”

News Flash!!Cork Garda forensics and the Special Branch from The Peoples Republic of Cork have traveled to Bleedin Duublin after complaints were made by the Pfizer Riser pharmaceutical plant in Ringnaskiddy on the unfounded slanderous remarks in the Royal Daily Liar newspaper.An elderly man by the name of Towngate who has a sycophantic love of all things British has been arrested and has been extradited to The Peoples Republic of Cork to face charges.When asked by the court why he did it,he broke down in tears and told the court he has been suffering severe mental problems and stress of late,due to a Corkman who has been exposing all his lies on a site known as IrishCentral.When asked by the Judge did he have anymore to say before sentencing.The man fell to his knees and pleaded for mercy,saying he was confused as to weather he was Irish or English and that he now knows he was stupid to take on a man of such caliber from Cork.(There was an audible snigger from the gallery)The Judge said he was more to be pitied then laughed at.Towngate was sentenced to six months at the Irish Re-educational facility for Anglophiles in Ballymuckeen Co Cork.

STOP AGAIN! Our picture editor has examined the photo above and states that - on close examination - the face of a man can be clearly seen in the neck hairs of the Stag. .../...A Garda spokesman said: " Dis could well be dat Cark-boy hidin' inside the deer before dat misfartunate Larch tree fell on him. If not, it could be someone else. It must be somebody." he added.

Deer in traffic are a daily threat here is Southern Illinois. Our deer population is up in spite of the number of deer seasons offered. Venison is very tasty and most people here relish it in all its forms. Deer brats, deer bacon, ground venison, steaks, chops tenderloins,roasts and lovely summer sausage, etc. My advice to Ireland is to eat more venison!

STOP PRESS! ... A deer has been killed by a falling Larch tree high up in the Dublin Mountains. Forestry workers examined the carcass and found it was in fact the body of man covered in a deer skin. .........The Autopsy revealed his entire body was contaminated by the chemical fumes produced by the chimney stack of the Pfizer pharmaceutical plant in Ringnaskiddy, County Cork where the ‘magic’ anti-impotence pill known as ‘The "Pfizer Riser", which has been known to effect the metabolism of local livestock,is manufactured. ........A Garda spokesman declared: "The poor clown thought he could sneak all the way up here, and then pretend to be a Wicklow Deer to try and creep into Dublin. He must have come from somewhere near the Pfizer plant and got infected. Then,being overexcited by getting so close to his Dream City of Dublin, he forgot to look out for falling trees, like a genuine deer would!" ....In his closing remarks the Coroner said: "This is a serious case of delusional misadventure brought on by an unreasonable desire to aspire to the status of his Masters"............ He added: "I suspect he had spent some time locked up in a shed before he embarked on this fatal plan, which might explain why he appeared so very, very, Pale!”
