winters in the Upper Peninsula have been especially harsh and have severely thinned out the deer population.

My husband stopped hunting up there about 10 years ago because the wolves had decimated the herds.

Sounds like they ought to be able to hunt them up some wolves.

Are those the wolves that were "re-introduced" by the federal government?

Harsh winters have decimated the deer population. Global warming to blame.

There will be fewer but better deer.

Tomorrow TCM will show the 1939 movie "Ninotchka" with Greta Garbo (8 p.m. ET). It's a comedy that makes fun of the Soviet system. Ninotcha as a true believer praises Stalin's purges: "There are going to be fewer but better Russians."

so much for global warming- I guess we should be trying to do everything we can to warm the planet so these poor deer can survive
