The use of affordable contraception through out the US in order to control deer populations is going to happen no matter what we want. It will eventually make sense, as it will at some point be cost effective, and it will be implemented, not only in Iowa, but all over.
How is spending money to implement contraceptives cost effective, compared tohaving hunters pay for deer tags, hunting licenses, taxes on hunting clothing, hunting supplies, guns, bows,motels, food, restaurants, fuel, etc. There are taxes on all of the above from hunters that generate billions of dollars. How does spending money instead of making money, make sense?
