A disease that last month killed deer in Somerset, Hunterdon and Mercer counties has hit deer in southern Morris County.


“The phone's been ringing off the hook,” said Bill Stansley, a research scientist for the Division of Fish and Wildlife. “Calls have been picking up from police in your area (Morris County) and from so many other callers lately; Hillsborough has been busy calling for weeks.”
