In fairness, the deer population is way out of control, so I'm just doing my part to reduce it.

Best way to help cull the deer population is to get your hunting license and fill your quota! Plus all fees (at least in my state) from hunting/fishing related things fund conservation efforts!

I hope we reintroduce and help repopulate predators.

The main reason deer populations are out of control is we’ve killed pretty much everything that eats deer…

Releasing wolves does tend to solve most issues in life.

Armadillos also can carry leprosy, so this is sound advice on multiple levels.

Imagine if humans did this with human babies.

Sees baby unattended for literally 0.03 seconds "Your mother has abandoned you, but I shall raise you like my own!"

Imagine if animals did this with human babies.

Cats will do this with their fucking owners, they just assume we're incompetent because we're not catching any critters, so they have to catch them for us so we don't starve.
Plus i'm pretty sure this is part of why many cats insist on joining us in the bathroom, they gotta keep watch while we're vulnerable taking a dump.

I wonder if mine are broken. They will only play with what they catch, never serve me the catch. Though most of the time it's only stick or some cabletie, occasionally iguana, all for their entertainment.

unfortunately a lot of cats suffer from "stinky dummy" syndrome, it's very sad 😔
