I would double down on habitat. 1 good winter isn’t fixing decades of drought or the effects it’s had on deer populations. Not sure what humans can do to fix it but that’s where I would start.
Imagine how this conversation would be if the guy took this exact picture (red tape, beer and all) but in the location it was run down then dispatched there on site.
I wonder if we would still be eating our own. Food for thought.
