You can't really control the deer population very effectively. The
reason for too many deer is that they are "edge dwellers". They live
on the edge of forests near clearings. That's their habitat. When you
clear forests to build houses and condo complexes, you create more
forest edges. It's as simple as that. Man keeps creating more and more
deer habitat, and then complains that it's being used.
We have deer walking through the yard from time to time, but mostly
on our "edges" {we back up to a forest) we have raccoons, foxes,
squirrels, possums, and other more shy critters, plus lots of birds.
We certainly put out food for them on the edges. Just last week, I
bought a 50-pound bag of dried corn on the cob. It's very popular.
We don't "commune" with our backyard visitors, but we do observe them
from time to time.
I'm not convinced "man" is a higher species than the woodland
critters. Some of our visiting raccoons and foxes seem smarter and
better behaved than some of the scum in here.
I guess you know more
Find another hobby, Reggie. As you well know, I don't give a schitt
about you or your opinions or your cites. Frankly, our visiting raccoons
seem a higher life form than you.
Another stupid cruel response from our resident A hole, Mr. Harold N
Krause.
