Mon, Aug 28, 2006, 6:55pm (EDT-3) now doth put
out:
The Eastern deer population has exploded for two reasons. First, there
is the proliferation of 'edge environment' wherein the deer thrive and
secondly due to overhinting of natural predators, as in, there aren't
any anymore.
However, if left alone the population would ebb and wane naturally.

I've got nothing against hunting and fishineg either. But I do have a
bone to pick with some of the insane arguments. * More species fue to
hunting, no, I don't think so. If you can name a species that has been
saved from extinction by hunting, go ahead.

Yeah, sure, right.

When I wrote, I was meaning the taxes generaged by hunting, not
hunting in and of itself. I can't name any species saved from
extinction, because if they aren't extinct it's not certain they would
have become extinct, now is it? Thought it would be undersood, silly me
That reminded me of a woman I talked with some years back. We had
gotten into beliefs, she was a firm believer in her religion as it
turned out. I mentioned I believe in reincarnation; she immediatelly
demanded proof it existed. Of course I couldn't offer any proof, merely
my faith that it was/is so. She immediately then terminated all
communications. Interesting in that at the same time she expected me to
believe, without any proof, in her religious beliefs. I think that
pretty well does it for me.
