#1 Entrapment. Well, yes. Because the fools are hunting out of season with no licenses. The alternative is to let the Mikmaq hunters have open season on the poachers after they've illegally killed all the moose. Actually, this same kind of ruse ought to be done here where a lot of bears are being illegally killed in National Parks by Asians who have a fetish for certain body parts from bears, believing in enhanced virility and/or curative powers from disease. I like to hunt deer myself, but I observe all the rules. If I see anyone hunting illegally, I do my best to get them apprehended, even though there is an over supply of deer in most areas.

#2 There have never been so many deer, SpecOp35. Before the Europeans arrive, most of Eastern North America was wooded, with grassy openings for the deer to browse. Now it's mostly grassy lawns with patches of woods where the deer sleep -- inside out habitat as far as the deer are concerned. Some of the State wildlife departments are trying to get the hunters to take does instead of bucks, on the grounds that each doe will give birth, but most bucks will never get to breed -- thus not contributing to increased herd numbers -- but from what I hear the hunters mostly refuse. For the sake of my hosta and the woodland understory growth because the excess deer clear-eat everything less than 6' tall, I would be grateful if all Rantburg hunters would check their state's laws, and take as many does as is permitted. Seriously -- you can probably donate the unneeded meat to a nearby emergency food pantry for the poor. Thank you!

#3 Sounds like you need mountain lions in your neck of the woods TW. Where I live, we have plenty of them and not too many nuisance deer.

Keeps you on your toes when you walk the dog at night, too.

#4 Methinks twas FREEREPUBLIC or LUCIANNE? > Some hunter claims to had killed an antlered deer WID SEVEN LEGS + ANDROGYNOUS GENITALIA. Normal deer in every respect save for the seven legs + you-know-whats. Of course you just know its Governor Dubya's fault.
