In CT and many other states they are no longer required to have IDs on
arrows - it was fought tooth and nail because they didn't want to be
identified as bad marksmen!

It’s really interesting because when, and that’s rarely, that they reach a
biological carrying capacity (or in a severe winter and no food), sperm counts
go down and females, in real dire situations, will actually absorb their
fetuses. Also, people mistake deer as starving in the winter because

There are several of us on this list who do not eat meat and believe that
animals have the right to a life apart from what humans think they're here for,
i.e. simply to feed humans or be used as a sporting event.

Yes, I've heard from wildlife experts that the population of all species
will level off at the carrying capacity (food, shelter) of the habitat,
despite predation (of any sort). This is why if you want to reduce a
species' population, you have to sterilize and return, so the sterilized
ones take

I joined at her suggestion because I had two FeLV+ cats at the time.

Yes, it is the cruelest blood sport, except maybe with an atlatl, a really
old type spear. Statistics for bowhunting injuries are over 50% - that
means that for every deer actually tracked and retrieved, another one that
has been shot with an arrow gets away, to die a slow, lingering death (all

No, they wouldn’t reproduce the same way, that’s the whole point! According to
research on reproduction, hunted herds twin only 14%, while hunted herds twin

hunters because they go for the sick and old animals, while
This just happened not far from us, our cat community is very upset and the
person removed the tip of the arrow to avoid identification.

Bow hunting is CRUEL. It often leaves the poor animal in agony and it dies a
slow painful death. We had a buck dying in our yard last winter, and we had
to call for someone to put it out of it's misery. It was horrible and I was
upset for weeks. I still can't stand to think about it.

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,

Next year, there will be the same number of deer, if not more, because
