Venison is good eating. Better to thin the heard than to have them hit by cars. Suburban ordinances that ban 8 foot fences allow them to wander around feeding on flower beds and gardens. When the population is too big, feeding them is just the wrong thing to do. More will just get hit by cars in developed areas.
**Suburban ordinances**.....no such thing up here.....no zoning laws; you might be surprised how free it is in Vermont. Where we are, Nobody, and I mean nobody cares what you do on your property.
I’m in Upstate NY. My daughter and hubby just got back from Ma with coolers full of fish...and I got mine!!
