http://www.twincities.com/localnews/...helter-killing


i apologize for not finding an article shrill enough in tone. take note that several laws were broken, that the policy is that deer like this are euthanized because they could carry disease.
deer are beautiful creatures. they also are in huge numbers, pose significant risks, and don't have the natural enemies they used to have to keep their numbers in check.
a fawn died. sad, but not too terribly sad. one less deer that can cause a car accident.
they wanted the deer kept safe? the shelter should have called and made arrangements immediately, they knew damn well they weren't supposed to have it there.
actually, the illinois family should have left it where it was from the get-go.

Non-kill shelters are fine for dogs, cats and horses not so much for deer, raccoons and rats.

I've had more than one friend go down with lyme disease likely from a deer tick who are the size of the tip or a ballpoint pen. Not to mention the damage they do to landscaping and chronic wasting disease. Bambi was a cartoon!

The DNR needs to send at least 20 agents to this guy's house:
