They only try to get oak regeneration where there's already an overstory of oak.They spray invasive species,do shelterwood cuts and fence the deer out where appropriate.They spend millions trying to regenerate the existing canopy of oak where appropriate.Their only solution is not just reducing the deer herd.That's one component and by you saying that they only reduce the herd is a flat out lie.
