We were driving on the high on ramp from 121 to 35E south bound. I looked over to the West (SW corner area where Dallas Gun Club is) and saw 3 deer. 3 does were standing right on the hump or elevated ground area right near the service road. I figured there were deer in those woods near there, and sure enough. A few years ago my wife saw a big buck crossing the road right in front of her at Parker Road near Old Denton (544 and 2281). I doubt they are there now with all the construction going on there now. I just though it was pretty cool seeing the deer "in town"!

They have always been there. They just got displaced.

I've heard of people seeing deer there too. I still see more in Cedar Park/Austin so I win.

I was passing 35W and Golden Triangle (north Fort Worth) a couple of weeks ago and saw maybe a dozen does on the NW corner of the intersection at lunchtime. Surprised we don't see more dead on the interstate in the area.

I was sighting in my rifle at the Dallas Gun Club today and saw plenty of deer tracks in the mud on the 100 yard range.

I see deer pretty much daily along 35W between TMS and Denton. Most I have counted in one evening on that drive was close to 30 critters. Not sure what grows in the bar ditch on the east side of the road in the bottom north of the Ponder exit but there is a few grazing there pretty much every evening. See pigs once in a while also.

There was a dead axis on the shoulder just south of Paradise liquors one time, guess he was part of that group that lives over in Argyle Bartonville area.

The Trinity river/ Grapevine creek areas have lots of deer. I've seen deer around Vista ridge mall. They've also moved into Indian creek area of north Carrollton.

I remember about 15 years ago someone hit a big 10 on the S entry rd into DFW airport, I guess that patch of trees on the East side is where they hide.
