In New Hampshire we had a bumper crop of acorns last fall. It was amazing how many there were. And this fall I haven't seen even one on our property. So lots of critters made it through last winter which otherwise might have died. Populations of chipmunks, red and grey squirrels went way up. I wouldn't be surprised if more deer than usual survived the winter since there was so much food. But now that high population has next to nothing to eat, so they're getting desperate. I suspect that accounts for the high road kill in this area.
