SALT LAKE CITY (AP) - Nighttime deer poachers beware—that shadowy creature on the side of the road may just be remote-controlled.

State wildlife officials across the country have for several decades been rolling out roadside robot decoys to nab unscrupulous hunters, and the effort has paid off with hundreds of citations.

A robotic deer decoy used in Georgia had to be replaced in 2006 after being shot more than 1,000 times.

"It's a time of year when some Utahns can't resist the sight of a big buck on the side of the road—even if shooting hours are over for the day," said Amy Canning, a spokeswoman for the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources.

Does it reply with hell-fire missiles like a drone, or spin round and cover the car with synthetic deer poo ?

Perhaps the Robodeer chases them down the road like T2.

No, that's the Deerminator.
