How will these control efforts affect deer population throughout Swarthmore Borough?
Response: These efforts will not have much impact on the deer population throughout the rest of the Borough. Deer tend to remain within a relatively small home territory. The portion of the local deer population that browse both in the Borough and in the Crum Woods will be affected by population control measures in the Woods, though not all deer present in the Borough include the Crum Woods in their home territory. Since deer are inclined to remain in their specific home territory, it is unlikely that a decreased population in the Crum Woods will draw deer out of the Borough and into the woods after a cull.
