Kansasdeerhunter,
The senerio you describe is one that no hunter likes to see. However, I will defend forever, a man's right to do with his land what he chooses. If he makes money on it, too bad. He's the one who had to pay for the land and it's upkeep. He's the one who pays the taxes and assumes all risks of ownership. He certainly deserves the right to put a fence up if he wants. No one has the right to tresspass on his property without permission and he has the right to charge tresspass fees and fence it, to control his property.
You mean back when the population of the animal he killed FAR outweighed the population of humans? Given todays human population and exponential increase in growth, if we still hunted deer like we did back when man 1st killed an animal to eat - deer would be extinct in no time. There is a good reason for regulating "how we kill our animals", its called population control.
You must have missed where I said " in any manner deemed safe and acceptable to the local area". Of course, game limit laws have to be followed to be deemed acceptible to any area of the country.
