Ca. approves sharpshooter plan to thin out Catalina deer population.

[GUNDOGLOVER49]

It's official. Nobody knows how many are going to be killed because they are not really sure how many there are estimates are between 500 and 1500 animals. I don't know why they don't just open it up for Ca. hunters, and set a limit on how many can be taken. Hold on just a minute, that would make sense, and we know there is no common sense in Ca. DFG.

I sent my emails and made my voice heard. Doesn’t seem like they were really interested in considering alternatives….

Classic ‘ole CA. I spoke with multi generational locals there last year and they weren’t happy about the potential eradication of the deer then because they hunt and eat the meat.

Oh, don’t give the free range organic meat to the homeless shelters or displaced veterans, give it to the condors.

“Some of the deer meat will go to feed endangered California condors on the mainland, while some carcasses will be left on the land — potential meals for bald eagles and foxes.”

California doesn't have a Dept of Fish & Wildlife. They are all transgenders....

Dude...no way they are harvesting the meat for anything....it's all for PR...it's CA...imagine what it would cost it they did that? Smoke and mirrors ..and remember 16ers ..it's designed to hurt...nothing new here ..next..

I did that the first time around and again now making the case that the herd is a valuable resource in the uncertain times of cwd. Got a form response that we considered their proposal and approved it based on the science...

The only thing that will stop them now is a lawsuit
