We here in AZ have to watch out for elk when we drive up north. My dad lives in Heber, AZ and if you start back to PHX after the sun goes down you really have to pay attention. Those varmints are huge and almost immovable.

I can't imagine that the amount of air going through those little things would generate much of a whistle. I have heard that one potentially effective strategy if a deer is "frozen" in your headlights is to blink the lights off and on. Don't know if it's any more effective than the whistles though. The one time I hit a deer it just jumped in front of the car. No avoiding it. They are pretty dumb animals. About all you can do is be really watchful when you're going through wooded areas. They *seem* to hang out in the same spots, so once you know where they are you can be ready for them.
