Expendable creatures
I hate:
Dear, Squirrels, skunks, just about every furry creature that won'y fetch my newspaper and my slippers and work for dog food.

If you throw a squirrel into a koi pond with lots of large koi they'll strip it clean. Good enough reason for them to exist. =D

So dalton, you are saying we should treat them like indians? Shove the deer onto reservations in the middle of the desert, sign a treaty promising to feed them then forget, and 100 years down the line let them open up casino's?

We're the ones who knocked down the forests and paved the way for industry, and now you're complaining because the poor dumb animals are trying to survive?

Supposedly the deer population is higher now in the U.S. than it was before Europeans came. Apparently deer have done very well "raiding" our fields. Fields which we often plant where the American Bison used to rule. It also doesn't hurt that most of the predators that used to feed on deer have been drastically reduced (wolves, bears, cougars etc...) in most places where deer come into regular contact with people.
Personally I like the taste of "corn fed" dear better than the ones who eat scrub grass here in Arizona.

Yet another strawman. You stupid fuck. I didn't say they were starving, but trying to survive. The roads don't help since, surprise, they get killed by cars often it seems. Yet, stupid, greedy selfish dipshits like you are so inconvenienced by them that somehow they are considered "expendable"?Azeron wrote:seeing my how many deer feel free to roam the streets where i live, they aint starving enough.

Re: Expendable creatures
Do you have any idea how many deer there are? Here in Michigan there almost as common roaches. They're surviving, thriving, and multiplying. They're starved to death in droves simply because of all of the competition amongst themselves. We aren't killing enough of them.Dalton wrote:And this gives us the right to be irresponsible?

Re: Expendable creatures
Oh, I have no problem with hunting them to control their population. But when idiots like Azeron slobber in and deem these creatures expendable and blame them for their situation, that's where I take issue.Stormbringer wrote:Do you have any idea how many deer there are?

Re: Expendable creatures
Hmmmm, deer are herbivores that feed wolves and bears (and people . . . I hear venison is mighty tasty.) And you're the one who lives on what used to be deer habitat. If you want to justify the existence of a creature, justify the existence of the typical housecat or dog. I mean, they consume just as many resources as their human owners (all that Purina Puppy Chow has to come from somewhere, you know.) They are far more prolific breeders than people are. And you want to talk about shit on the road . . . dogs leave lots of it on the roadways. So if you want to start a thread demanding a justification of the existence of animals that lived in the area before you, then justify the animals that you brought with you.Azeron wrote:I hate:

Without extensive clearing and growing operations by humans, the current dear population could not support its self. Human activity has greatly expanded the food supply while cutting back the number of natural predators to a minimal. The result s that areas which could naturally support perhaps 40 deer now will often have over 500 with the deer visiting nearby residences and farms to fill up before returning to the woods.
And due to some very stupid limitations on hunting, its getting worse everywhere.
I've done my part, gunning down as many as I can get permits for each year, but it would really help if about 5 times more where issued, and if morons who cant hit anything stopped buying them up.

I don't blame deer for anything. But the population does need to be thinned as it's become far far to large to be supported and they've become a menace and a major nuisance. They range nearly every where and are pretty destructive.

Re: Expendable creatures
I agree totally, but it's the irresponsible attitude of people like him that I take issue with. He probably wouldn't give a second thought to exterminating the lot of them just so that they'd stop shitting on his lawn.Stormbringer wrote:I wasn't defending him. He's a moron.
