• Palos Park Police Alert Motorists To 'Frisky Deer' During Mating Season (patch.com) — Drivers using Palos Park's dark, forested roads are being warned about increased deer activity during the fall mating season, when collisions spike from October through December. Police urge motorists to slow down at dawn and dusk, watch for eye shine, use high beams when safe, and remember that deer often travel in groups. The guidance explains how to react if a deer enters the roadway and what to do after a collision.
