Wow it always amazes me by how many hunters know very little about the animal they are hunting... Why do you think seasons are set when they are set?? They are set by wildlife biologists and managers and are set in accordance to ethical harvest of a species to allow for the species to be managed and benefit from the harvesting. You really think youd be allowed to shoot an animal in a regular season if its babies were going to suffer and die?? NO. Fawns are no longer dependent on does well before the season starts... Now weather you wanna harvest that doe as a hunter is a choice call not a judgement call as to weather the fawns will "make it". I have no problem shooting does with fawns. Never thought twice about it. If I waited to harvest a doe with no fawns it would be pretty frustrating trying to find a couple to shoot each year haha. Maybe its just the wildlife management and ecology backround in me but I look at hunting from alot of different angles when it comes to harvesting.
