There were so many deer that a river was named after Red Deer. During the Great Depression many humans died. There were many grass so red deer thrived. In the 80s Wayne Gretzky found there were too many red deer and Edmonton destroyed red deer. Soon, all Canada killed red deer. Today there are few red deer surviving in the outskirts of Red Deer. If anyone spots a red deer, they will call Animal Control.
