Two days after the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump, a motive for the 20-year-old shooter’s actions has not been identified, the FBI said — but authorities are learning more about the suspected gunman, as well as the days and moments leading up to the shots being fired.
If it’s anything like where I grew up, the deer population is massive and actually benefits from controlled culling. Also venison is delicious, and I know some hunters will literally give the extra meat away since a single deer has a lot of it, oftentimes to food pantries.
Obligatory disclaimer: I’m leftist as fuck and actually prefer a low meat diet. But deer hunting does have benefits.
Exactly. They feed on the local crops and we can’t magically make wolves and coyotes appear. There’s many negative impacts of not hunting, including many car accidents. And, it’s meat raised on crops stolen from mega-corporations that are artificially inflating the cost of food.
Once we take back the means of production and begin to heal the environmental cause of too much deer, I’ll stop hunting and eating them. Fair?
They actually hire professionals to shoot deer in some urban areas in Pennsylvania where they cause problems. Farmers hire professionals because of the massive crop damage they do. Hunters are free deer harvesters, in fact they pay to hunt them.
Deer are out of control because we hunted all the predators because meat farms needed to protect their product.
You’ve slotted yourself into the place of natural predators, but that does not actually fix anything!
I think you’re underplaying the historical significance of wool and how agricultural lands for growing plants also played a massive role in destroying the habitat of those predators (toss in timber in there too).
