I agree with you, but what would happen if we didn't have a hunting season, do
you think they would not still reproduce like they do now? To each their own,
again, I'm just thankful for the life of a deer, and the people who do purchase
linceses as this money is put back into the wild life. The funding from
licenses and tags is used to insure a healthy population of wildlife in the
states, including the DNR to enforce the rules... I take it you don't eat meat
Natalie?

It may provide your family with meat, BUT, technically, hunting doesn’t really
lower deer populations except in the immediate aftermath of a cull. Next year,
there will be the same number of deer, if not more, because hunting encourages
and spurs reproduction through compensatory rebound and because states manage
deer for MSY (maximum sustained yield). I’m sure that you will notice that the
population doesn’t really go down in the long run. I have made it my business
to learn as much as I can about deer biology/reproduction. Natalie

I monitor all the hunting accidents, it happens a lot, but unfortunately,
innocent bystanders get hurt or killed, too - not to mention all the
domestic animals, even farm animals.
An Indiana hunter was killed on a youth day hunt, and two men with a 10-yr
old kid with them, blamed it on him. Turned out, it wasn't.....

I hate bow hunting or any hunting whatsoever. I'd really love to see a
hunter with a bow stuck in him, and I'm quite delighted when I hear that a
hunter has shot his hunting buddy by mistake.
