How come some deer signs have a red dot on the nose?

Question

Has anyone ever seen one of the deer signs on the side of the road, with a red dot on the nose, like Rudolph? Ive always wondered why they have a red dot like that...can someone tell me?

Answer 1

People put the red dot there... to make the sign look like Rudolph... its just a funny little thing to occupy your time in the country.

Answer 2

Its something to keep you wondering and awake late at night =P

Ya know like those big road side attractions.

But really its probably a prank by some kids with nothing better to do.

Answer 3

never seen that before must be something someone has done as a joke

Answer 4

Just a prank some kids play.

Answer 5

well cuz some one was trying to be funny, they put they red dot there so people would look/watch out for rudolph. must have been some kids messing sround. have u seen it on more then one sign?

Answer 6

They are red stickers added by pranksters who think it's funny to have Rudolph on the sign.  The highway department does NOT manufacture or install them that way.
