That is funny, but conservation has gone overboard with some species. The grey wolf is becoming a threat again in the Northern Tier after revival efforts in National Parks that were so successful, they started roaming the countryside....

IMO, deer population WAY out of control. The property we just left in NoCal foothills was under siege by the big varmints.

After total garden wipe out four years running, last year I built an incredible tomato fortress that would have done Elmer Fudd proud. Lots and lots of great tomatoes but they cost me a bundle.

I think they ought be be treated just like livestock predators. Bang. And, yes, they do attract mt. lions. Saw two in our yard at night, year before we left.

About five minutes after moving to Hilton Head, started seeing "Save the Sea Pines Deer" bumper stickers. Oh, boy.

Gotta run. Floydman rules!

Ditto here. When I moved here 20 years ago, deer weren't really a problem. You rarely saw one, so it was a special event. Not no more. Now they are like weeds.

I like your 25 deer permit idea. Wish we could get it passed here. But the wishy-washy atheist liberals <bg> and deer-huggers would stop it cold.
