No brainer even before the article. The state owns all deer within the state.

Heres a little food for thought>> I've always wondered if you can sue the state if you ran over a deer on the hiway and theres not a deer xing sign...

You can only sue the State when they grant an exception to immunity.  I don't think they have granted one for deer yet.
