I've never understood the whole ethical thing when it regards doing something legal. Sounds like someone wants to whale on some runts, yetfeels the need to getprior approval from the masses.
I want to do the ethical thing and what is also best for the herd population. I have no desire to take out a fawn, but I have seen abig mother doe I wouldn't mind taking out.

I have heard from a few friends if I kill the doe the fawns will die too.
It's legal, and therefore ethical. If the fawns make it to hunting season they'll make it to winter, after that all bets are off.The antlerless limit for my county is 8, and I have a freezer to fill, I'll pop Mom and the fawns if opportunity presents.
