I personally dont havent really thought much about it so i cant really answer your question, but as far as deer i would have to agree with Karen probably not just for the fur. And to be honest I live in Kentucky and I absolutley love deer hunting, although a lot of u may not agree with it where i live its a common thing. And again to be honest there is almost nothing that will get your blood pumping like a buck walking under your tree stand and you with your bow drawed back ready to let it go. I myself have only killed one buck and one doe, and havent hunted in 2 years but im thinking of going rifle hunting this year. And i know a lot of u disagree but i think a lot of it is where u are raised, if u are raised around it and see it every year then its not as bad as everyone makes it out to be. And as Karen said if some arent killed they will be over populated. I think this would be another good post so i will put one up to see what everyone thinks.
