Exactly, here in Pittsburgh and the outer suburbs the deer popluation is insane, they have no natural predators so like Billionfold said "They breed like rabbits" and come this time of year (rut) they are everywhere. Do you realize how many more people would be killed in fatal car crashes with dear if hunting was stopped. It's not like we are hunting deer into extinction, we can barley keep the population under control as it is.
