Bummer.
But the survivors and their progeny should be sleek.

Bad for state revenues and hunter's lust, but nature isn't concerned about wildlife management.

Sorry I missed this post in time to atentd the meeting. Some how I don t believe the Indians had this problem. These are wild animals not pets and should be treated as such. Feeding of any wild animal is against the law . The city deer are in a closed protected herd that sick and diseased animals survive and pass on these genetics in a inbred herd. Where there is an abundance of prey predators will follow. I believe there needs to be an mechanism in place to thin this herd to manageable levels for a healthy herd and happy citizens.
