They are an issue because native species where wiped out and there is no balance in natural predators for them. I watched a documentary recently with attenborough he said on the main island there are no more native tree species at low elevations anymore. Where I live we have native javelinas...
Its bad enough that I actually have to call out "NOT A DEER" while hiking because I have been shot at by hunters twice in different states just for hiking quietly. The way Ive seen hunters shoot at anything that move is hilarious. Getting snuffed out in the woods is generally hilarious if it...
Yeah OP NEVER PROVIDED ANY FACTS. All the facts and statistics I provided (which no one else has) from multiple countries and this guy says theres no facts? Why bother participating if youre going to selectively read and pretend the evidence doesnt exist? Furthermore you have provided nothing to...
Nice job projecting being the spoiled brat yourself. And ignoring the fact that 80% of bucks in the wild are killed by human hands.
Youre pretty demanding on the sources without providing any yourself for your other bizarre claims. Then you cant even take the time to read or address what was...
@malaclypse No one wants to ban subsistence hunting. Most of us explicitly came to its defense.
And the irony of hunting and fishing permits and regulations in the states is that they give preference to well off individuals who dont need to hunt rather than protecting the resources for...
So youre not alarmed by the fact that the vast majority of bucks die artificially? In the wild the maximum prey a predator can take sustainably is usually 10%. You are idiots to discount the facts an emotional reason behind protecting wilderness. I will not tolerate your foolish bullshit...
Wisconsins recent studies show 57% of deer individuals die from humans eventually. The majority of kills are of course probably males, so we can infer 80%-90% die from hunting, and that probably 15% or less survive to die of natural causes. This is an enormous pressure on a population and deer...
Many social species suxh as Elephants have been shown to have their personality highly altered in populations where the males are hunted for tusks. Without male figures these elephants have been observed becoming homicidal and suicidal. It is no stretch to wonder how deer behavior has been...
That is not the case with every mammal, as this post is about all animals being slaughtered as long as people enjoy killing them. And you have no way of knowing the effect having so few males around does to the animals natural behavior outside of commonly repeated information which makes the...
"I hate when people try to make an argument and support it with false facts or broad generalized statements."
Funny thing so do I. Funny that you bring up child support to in such a non neutral political way, which is a whole seperate issue, but the bottom line is deer need male role models in...
They hunt all species indiscriminately deer aside, they use government tracking devices meant to avoid "protected" wolves to track and kill them and this is done with a wink and nudge from all parties. Javelinas which are under stress already in the driest coldest part of their normally tropical...
Western new mexico university. We are a frontier community surrounded by wilderness yet people feel the need to hunt even on the greenbelt within the school property. Then they dump the carcasses in the dormitory dumpsters. While hiking i have also found and hear of people finding dozens of...
Anyone ever gone out to sabatoge hunts? People bowhunt even on the grounds of my university leaving dead deer parts anywhere. They only ever take the head and backstraps, and male deer never live longer than a couple years here. Likewise young deer here never have father figures around. These...
