Unfortunately, I was a bit pre-mature in my excitement. The division of Fish & Wildlife changed their minds and decided to let Princeton Township officials hire White Buffalo Inc. to deal with their deer problem after all.
I am completely baffled as to why the Township prefers to continue to shell out tens-of thousands of dollars to have their deer herd in-humanely slaughtered by White Buffalo, which uses methods such as netting the deer followed by a bolt to the head to dispatch the animals. I' ve seen videos of this method and it made me sick to my stomach. Imagine a trapped deer in a net thrashing wildly as three guys try to keep it still while they attempt to fire a pressure bolt through its head. It' s truly appaling and downright disgusting.
