Aaaah I can see it now. First the markers for the flourescing gene will also contain the gene expressing tenticles, glowing, stinging. Didn't these guys see Jurassic Park
Second the now glowing deer will step into the highway only to look at the oncoming car's headlights and think to itself (using it's tiny deer brain), "What kind of predator is that ? Should I freeze or run ??". The person behind the wheel will look down the road and see the deer's eyes plus the glowing tentacles and think (using his tiny human brain) "What the heck is that thing standing in the road ?" After puzzling that one for too long it'll then occur (too late) to the driver that perhaps some evasive action should have been taken. So deer ends up in front seat in driver's lap but now we have the added fun of stinging tenticles for everyone in the car. And there will be no short sleeve shirts for the rescue squad this summer ....
