Some of my neighbors have machineguns (as a consequence of their jobs). One single round goes through the neighborhood everybody has serious problems ~ most certainly the guy holding the gun at the other end.

No, this is an urban area ~ very urban. The hunting laws don't need to be liberalized at all ~ we need animals who can kill lots of deer.

You are delusional if you think that an animal that will kill many deer will only kill the deer. Look into what is going on in Northern Minn, Wisc, and Mich and you will think differently.

Once the deer population is down, what do you think those wolves will be hinting?

I’ll tell you what, farm animals, your pets and your small children.

In highly populated districts the firearms for hunting deer are limited to shotguns with either buckshot of slugs, both of which are very limited in range, especially the buckshot. Archery is another way to limit damage to things other than the deer being hunted. Making excuses for not allowing hunting is just BS. The reason you have so many is because not enough people hunt them.

That would be me!

Not wolves - they'll hunt the pets, then the kids, then you. And they can't be controlled.

Anything that can kill deer can kill humans. Wolves in the suburbs would be worse than black bears and they are not good at all. When you wish for something like this, picture kids playing, riding bikes, etc.

There is a very good answer to overpopulation of deer in suburbs. Either bait them out to where they can be shot by hunters or hire the professional removers. They are very efficient and kill and remove the deer with little fanfare and the meat is utilized by charitable organizations.
