A new report suggests the incidents continued because freight was unaffected by restrictions.
Travel restrictions and lockdowns during the Covid pandemic had little impact on the numbers of deer killed on Scotland's roads, says a new report.
NatureScot, which monitors collisions between traffic and deer, said this was likely to be because freight was allowed to continued almost as normal.The highest number of collisions occur in the Highlands.Argyll and Bute has the second highest figure - 369 - followed by Dumfries and Galloway with 161.
NatureScot said its most up-to-date figures showed a decrease in collisions in the Highland, likely due to culls of deer to protect woodlands.The peak months for the road hazard are May and June when young deer are looking for their own territories.
