The eastern region has some of the worst roads for deer-related accidents.
There are around 200 car accidents a day around the UK involving deer and costs in insurance claims amount to more than £20m a year.
Two of the worst roads are the A14 through Suffolk and Cambridgeshire and the A11 between London and Norwich.
Now for the first time the a scheme called The Deer Collision Project will collect local figures to work out the scale of the problem nationally.
Other accident blackspots are the A9 in the Highlands, the M3 between London and Southampton, the M9 between Stirling and Dunblane in Scotland, and the M4 between London and South Wales.
