So are you telling me if I build a 20 ft fence over a 100 acre plot i'm entitled to kill the deer that I put in them cause they are mine?
Exactly. The state typically owns the wildlife. You buy a deer and put him in a pen, he's yours. Shoot him if you want cause you own him.
Not always true Tex ,
here it's illegal to hunt them whether you own them or not if it isn't deer season . The Bellar Lacey Act violations case held here recently is a good example , the guy thought that he could sell penned killing anytime he wanted because he "owned" the deer . He can't even renew his deer breeding license anymore because he copped to game violations over this very subject . Last I looked his herd was for sale .
