ROFLMAO! Us D(h)eers are not to be laughed at! We nibble and gnaw and trample and stomp and never show mercy!

Deer ate about 150 Dollar worth of flowers my friend planted! One day beautiful flowers - next day: bare stems.

I got down to the river a little after them and put it together rather quickly. Someone had killed the deer (there were four carcasses tied down in the river), disemboweled them, spread the organs out amid the rocks along the stream and weighted the carcasses down in the water. But why?

Venison is most often associated with the meat of deer, but it also includes the meat of moose, elk, caribou, and antelope.

Venison is lower in food energy, cholesterol and fat than common cuts of beef, pork or lamb.

Yomiuri: Tokyo eyes Tama deer cull to protect soil, farming

A plan recommended by the council will be implemented later this month and completed by the end of fiscal 2006.

The number of deer in the zone will be reduced to between one and three per square kilometer. The other areas will be designated restricted zones and the number of deer will be reduced to one or zero per square kilometer. Hunting regulations will be relaxed to increase the number of deer that can be killed per day per hunter from one male deer to two male deer or one female and one male deer...more...
