 Virus kills almost 200 white-tailed deer in NJ (phillyBurbs.com) | New Jersey News
HILLSBOROUGH TOWNSHIP, N.J. - Nearly 200 white-tailed deer have died in New Jersey recently after becoming infected by a virus passed on by small insects, state officials said.

Larry Herrighty, assistant director of the Department of Environmental Protection's Division of Fish and Wildlife, said the disease, which causes fevers and mouth, nose and eye bleeding, is affecting a "relatively small number compared to prior outbreaks." The disease killed 4,000 deer in the state 1999 and about 1,000 in the 1970s, he said.
