Deer Seeks Refuge on Cockenoe Island

As has been rumored by locals, the local deer population isn’t just found in Westport’s mainland, but out on Cockenoe Island, too. The deer have found themselves out on the island during low tides, when navigating the trek from Cedar Point to the sand bars is manageable. Once on the island, they’re safe from most predators - including local traffic. WestportLocal.com photo
