Virtually every year we have a doe give birth to a fawn in our field. When this happens we stop using our back driveway for several weeks until the fawn is strong enough to leave the property.
Twice we have had twin fawns. Cut little things.
“YOU DON’T NEED 10 BULLETS TO KILL A DEEEEAHH.....”
When I farmed my first cut of hay was always around the time does fawned. I would come upon day old ones and go around them in the haybine. I learned sadly that the mothers refuse to return if chased off and the field is cut.
Somehow, I doubt the lack of more appealing food was going to be a problem for that animal.
I would have made sure it got the occasionally flea & tick scrub though.
Come to think of it, I know exactly why Cuomo got involved:
I think it was Leona Helmsley that left a billion+ to "animals". Cuomo's father, Saint Mario, along with his cronies, were the executors of the estate, and got judge to change the Helmsley's will enough to allow them to funnel the money into their own pockets.
Animal shelters in NYS were not amused.
If the LSM were to point out that the "Queen of Mean", even while dead, could have helped the black community in NYC enjoy nature, but the corrupt, white, anti-woman elite destroyed a means of private funding...
AWE SHIT!!! This deer didn’t do a thing, wasn’t hurting anyone...it was more scared than the so called humans around it...
Cuomo and Blatio: Rot in Hell!!!
I’m thinking this buck was part of another protected group. He had only one antler so I am thinking he had begun to identify as female and was in the process of transitioning to a doe.
Except when you can't, then there's no deer for anyone and you shut the hell up.
We voted in Pataki and I was fortunate to work with his staff during his administration. They were polite and treated everyone with respect. Spitzer's staff were animals, like him, as were Paterson's.
My home town of the Bronx voted like 80% for Hitlery. A disgrace. But most of the folks I knew there bugged out when they saw the writing on the wall......as did my family 50 or so years ago when I was in HS.
“The city fined him $110 per day until he got rid of the goat.”
Sounds like another neighbor had a grudge.
Where’s PETA?
CUOMO KILLED RUDOLPH!!!
“Wheres PETA?”
Post of the day.
Central Park or Bronx Zoo not options?
This is the kind of ____ that happens when politicians who don’t know jack about things stick their noses in. Same thing with NYC public schools, absolutely ruined by Bloomberg and now Big Jerk Dumblassio. That poor deer wasn’t harming anyone and in fact, was giving urbanites a chance to see something of the wild besides rats and pigeons. Why couldn’t they have enlisted someone from the world-class Bronx Zoo to move this poor creature, a little spike buck? They have all sorts of experience with delicate wildlife. But no, they had to have the NYPD, with no experience, come in and over-trank it. Who’s to say this wasn’t Dumblassio’s little “giving the finger” to Cuomo, and the poor deer was the helpless pawn in their stupid pissing contest?
