    The deers shouldt get shot

    They should just have more predators. Wolves and such. That eats the deer.

      On my home island, some rich colonials decided that they needed something to hunt so they had deers brought in. Now they’re everywhere, and hunting is very popular.

      Have you seen a wild run down a kill a deer? Getting shot is far more peaceful.

      Humans are predators of deer. Though some of them are wasted, many aren’t. Hunters (with their families and their communities) eat their venison for supper, sew their hides into clothes, and carve their bones into jewelry. Unfortunately, it is true that humans have crowded out many of the other predators of deer, like wolves, necessitating more human hunting to fill the gaps; thankfully there’s been much effort towards fixing that mistake.
