There was actually a similar case in Michigan. A family found an injured baby deer. They were told by the DNR that they couldn't keep the deer. The family fought the DNR and won. The family got a permit and was allowed to keep the deer. They have had her now for 5 years.
At least in this case (in Michigan) things were handled properly. The DNR told the people they couldn't keep the deer. The people were allowed to appeal the decision and they eventually won. These people were allowed to plead their case and they won.

In Wisconsin, there was no discussion or anything. The government thugs simply raided the place and killed the deer. It is absolutely outrageous. Why weren't the people given some type of deadline? Why weren't the people given the opportunity to move the deer? The people were given no warning. What is so sad is that they had an animal sanctuary that was going to take the deer the next day.
Some of these government bureaucrats are just completelybrain dead. In the case in Wisconsin, a news reporter asked the DNR supervisor why they didn't just call the people and tell them they couldn't keep the deer. She responded, "If a sheriff's department is going in to do a search warrant on a drug bust, they don't call them and ask them to voluntarily surrender their marijuana or whatever drug that they have before they show up."
How could this imbecile compare people taking care of a baby deer to drug dealers? The stupidity of some of these bureaucrats is mind-boggling.
Here is the article about the case in Michigan:
