Exactly. Or if you're a farmer with enough land to be able to cull the herd due to the damage they cause your crops.
Hunting is an expensive addic... err, I mean sport.
I would love to get a nuisance permit for our land. Start thinning the herd in September. Right now hubby wants to keep hunting just for family. I understand, but 2 years ago, when I went into my field at the crack of dawn to pick corn for market, and I jumped 7 deer, 3 bucks in velvet and 2 does and 2 young ones, I was ticked off. Early October, deer just become eating machines. I had a lovely crop of swiss chard, beets, carrots, and spinach, I now have a crop of.....stems. We've had a discussion. He's beginning to realize that maybe we need more than just 2 hunters on the property.
