Wild deer have been smashing into cars, causing death and destruction on a busy road in Laois.
The situation is going to get worse with the start of mating season, according to one Laois councillor.
The deer are running across the N77 road as it passes through woodlands between Durrow and Abbeyleix.
Urgent requests are being made to put up deer fences along the route.
Cllr John Joe Fennelly who recently tabled motions on the issue, says three crashes occurred recently.
“Last weekend two deer were killed, one on Thursday evening and one on Friday, which meant two cars were badly damaged. The previous week a car was written off,” he said.
