But accessable to only those with the keys.
And when it comes to private land, that is the way it is suppose to be.
But there should be an accurate count of animals entraped and a price paid for animals.
First of all, it can be nearly impossible to get an "accurate" count of deer in this area. I've tried it and it can be a real pain in the butt, and I use a helicopter. Secondly paying the state for deer that are on high fenced ranches is stupid, it really is. The only time the state wants to claim ownership of the deer is when hunting season roles around and it time to charge for lic. and stamps.
If the state ever charges landowners for the deer on their property then they (the state) better start taking financial responsibilty for "their property". The day I can send the state a bill for the $5,000+ in crop damages that their deer do each year, is the day they can start billing private ranches for "entrapping state owned deer".
If the state wants to charge a private landowner X amount of $$, then the state better be prepared to pay for the millions of dollars that deer cause in damages each year.
