The Indiana Department of Natural Resources says deer-vehicle collisions across Indiana numbered more than 14,000 last year, down nearly 9 percent from 2015.

The Indiana Department of Natural Resources says hunters who kill deer in Dearborn County north of State Road 48 between now and Nov. 27 must take them to a DNR check station to be sampled for bovine TB.

The bill would allow an unlimited number of preserves in Indiana, all under the authority of the Board of Animal Health.

The Department of Natural Resources says the parks will close temporarily for the two-day hunts on Nov. 16 and 17, and Nov. 30 and Dec. 1.
