Saw it on AT. It will never fly with IAtaxpayers. Hunting is the only viable way to keep the deer numbers in check in the state. Hunting brings revenue in the millions with deer hunting and doesn't cost the state money. Contraceptives cost money and then with the publics' fear and uneasiness of eating a deer that has been injected with drugs, this will never be implemented. IA deer hunters have stepped up to the plate and have been killing large numbers of deer over the last few years as directed and suggested by the DNR. The herd is getting closer in a comfortable deer density according to the state DNR wildlife Bureau head. From what I have heard,the state DNRis not considering it, just propaganda by antis with that article. Notice the 1st line in the report above....wildlife experts; more like anti hunters. The IA DNR states that hunting is THE ONLY VIABLE WAY TO CONTROL THE DEER POPULATION. Money talks and B.S. walks.
