Default RE: High fence poll

I don't know how it works in other states but here in Texas, game animals belong to the state of Texas ie. the people. We pay for the right to harvest our animals (hunting licenses). Now this is where things get heated. If a land owner wants to high fence his/her property and manage their herd then get after it...BUT my problem is that the deer that are now in escence "captured" and are no longer free ranging animlas for the rest of us low fence guys. If these folks want to "herd" the wild deer or capture/tranquilize them and move them out of their high fence ranch I have no problem with it. Then they can stock their ranch with breed dear. I dont feel the high fence guys have the right to enclose "our deer". Just my thought...For what its worth. Usually a hill of beans! LOL

ps. If you are high fencing for exotics, then please please please high fence! Here in south texas we have enough non indigenous large game animals roming around (makes for good hunting) but they compete directly with our whitetails...
