Thread Name: BS: Defeating Deer in the Garden
Subject: RE: BS: Defeating Deer in the Garden
I watched (I am still rather upset) a vid a few hours ago sent to me by email of a deer attacking a dog in a residential area. The deer had a fawn and, of course, a dog is to be attacked with extreme predjudice. And it was. Not Mom's fault. It's in her statement of duties and qualifications. I was taken aback that the humans were so inept at dealing with the situation, but, it's not in their "statement" to know what to do.
As far as I am concerned, humans own their space. As far as letting wild animals infringe on human property, it's ludicrous. If any tree-hugger says differently, they should go live in the wilds with the animals and give up their space amongst the humans.
