"We have a huge deer population here, so if they're not hunted they end up being hit by cars of starving over winter, so I don't oppose hunting as it's a quick merciful death compared to the other 2 and it does help feed a lot of families who otherwise struggle to put meat on the table."
That's exactly why I feel that I my views on hunting are not reality based up here.
I've only seen one deer that had been hit by a car, and it was a very sad thing to look at. I see lots of deer around dusk, and they are throwing off the balance of the food chain. It's all good, I'm just looking at it with a city girl's point of view.
