We heard the same issue in an "affluent" Toledo, Ohio suburb last year.

These things really make a person wonder about how ignorant some people have become. They build houses/communities in wooded areas, then complain about the wildlife. DUH! (Ever seen "Over the Hedge?")

With suffering economies right now, having a lottery of a limited number of archery tags seems to make a lot of sense. The hunter pays X number of dollars to participate in a special hunt AND removes the problem. It is a win-win scenario! But, what do I know?
