Heck I've never enjoyed killing them, Charlie.....and I think your concern has merit. I wouldn't feel any better if they hired sharpshooters and dumped the entire carcass in the landfill, either.

It's a choice that the businesses and municipalities didn't have until now. NC also is considering allowing cities and municipalities to allow urban archery seasons. If that passes.....it'll also be after the standard archery season.....and it'll be subject to the same game laws (bag restrictions) as the normal season.

BOTH of these endeavors are good for NC Hunters AND the overall health of our herd.
