Wolves still look like a reasonable alternative AND, best of all, they'll force those gardeners who have been feeding the deer indoors!

No matter what course of action that anyone offers other than introducing wolves, you scoff at. You keep coming back to the belief that allowing humans to hunt the deer is a bigger problem than bringing in more wolves. Why is it you really want the wolves brought in?

Why are you so hell bent against allowing humans to hunt the deer?

I can only come up with one answer, you sir are a bona-fide anti hunting Liberal. If not then you are at least a full fledged animal loving, tree hugging, wolf worshiping Rhino, who has no problem with the possibility that little children will be killed by these animals.

I only say that, because if you allow wolves to be brought in to do what human hunters can do, then you are anti-hunting and pro wolf. In my neck of the Texas woods, that makes you a liberal.

It's like this, you probably wouldn't like it if your next door neighbor came over and fired across your front door to shoot a deer in your sideyard.

This is an urban area ~ people live cheek to jowl, head to toe, in ticky tacky woodframe houses with aluminum foil walls.

Firing shotguns knocks the nails out of their plasterboard.

Arrows are less acceptable because they are "silent".

You do realize the game don't gather in the roads, or vast open areas. They are walking around in backyards!

You brain dead? I have a wall full of deer mounts.

I don't know why I was pinged to this but if you think I'm an anti-hunting liberal nothing is further from the truth. We allow hunting on our property because we are over run with deer. Sure, the young ones are fun to watch but the big ones are a nuisance in large numbers. We can't put out a garden anymore and the garden is practically in my back yard.

Even though we allow hunting on our farm we still have WAY too many deer. They seem to disappear during hunting season and come back when it's over.

I still would not want wolves introduced to my area. I would rather have hunters.
