Do You Agree With Deer Hunting?????

I have yet to meet a hunter who doesn't use the animals taken for food. You can't base an entire group on the actions of one. The person with 20 deer carcasses piled up in his garage wasn't following hunting laws, as most states have a VERY low per hunter bag limit on deer, except for nuisance herds.

As to bears not being overpopulated, in some areas they have an extremely high population. NY, NJ, some parts of Mass, all are having problems with bear overpopulation and the ensuing human/bear run ins.

The only reason there over populated is because US humans have taken over so much land and there's not enough room for the poor bears to spread out by.

Actually, there's more woodland in Mass now than there was in the 1800's.

Yes SOME areas have more land than others but on WWF they showed many acres being cut down and bears did not have enough room same for wolfs.

I still want more land for the animals than humans.

Have you ever looked at population density maps for your own province? I am certain that in Ontario, there's more land for animals than people, just not in the city.
