It's not that they don't have any place else to go.  They don't want to 
go anywhere else.  They're there because of all the inviting things to 
eat and also because there's no natural predator to eat them.  When the 
area was forest these animals didn't exist.  Deer populations are very 
low in forested areas.  There are many more deer today than were here 
before the country was settled.

We've created the problem for sure but it's not, as with so many other 
creatures, from destroying their natural habitat.  It's from creating a 
new habitat much better for deer than what they had before.
