Should high fence deer pens be illegal???
I believe so. I think it should be illegal to put up a high fence and sell hunts. Here in Michigan they are popping up all over the place. They restrict, and redirect natural deer movement, ruin surrounding property hunting, lower surrounding property value, and introduce disease into the natural deer population. CWD made a jump from the Wyoming area to Wisconsinthis way now all the states surrounding Wisconsin are in danger of CWD. I have some friends with property close to high fence pens and their deer hunting is not near what it should be. A piece of property not far from my parents house has two neighbors with high fences on 3 of his 4 sides. That property is not worth anything to anyone except one of the two neighbors. What really irritates me is all the "baiting is not ethical" crap when the high fence pens are popping up left and right. The DNR made baiting illegal and then legal again but you can only have so much out. Then they made electronic feeders illegal even though they put out less than what was legally allowed on the ground and I'm not sure if they are legal again or not.
Whatdoes everyone else think about all these high fences going up?
