You bring up a point a lot of people don't understand. If you don't thin out the herds, they will overpopulate and not have enough food in their habitat. It gets compounded when folks do to much house building in the woods - the hungry deer start scavaging in the landfills etc. Hunting does help maintain a balance in nature if its managed well. We increased the deer quotas in our town - the interesting thing they did was only to increase it for bow hunters.
