Thats pretty dang close, both to my land and in my heart!

Sorry to have to correct you, but "hunters" are among the most active segment of the population concerned about nature and the environment, and spend more time and money protecting nature and wild habitat than almost any other... And with the extremely strict hunting laws and and poaching penalties hunters do not go out and "annihilate everything".?

As for letting nature take it's course being the best thing for animal populations, which would you rather be, a deer in a "naturally managed" herd that has reached overpopulation and is destined to have you and 1/3 of your herd slowly starve and freeze to death over an icy winter to keep your population in check, or would you rather have your herd monitored by wildlife professionals and a small number of hunting permits issued each year to keep your herd at a level balanced with the quanity of your food source..???? Mother nature is the most cruel, heartless force on the planet when it comes to managing animal popluations, theres nothing kind, sweet or mothering about nature.....

The environmental movement is responsible for many millions of human deaths world wide, and the numbers are growing every year, thanks to these radical idealists and they're insanity.... http://www.forumgarden.com/forums/sh...557#post876557
