"Bowhunting has never been an effective tool for deer control" Tom Beissel IL DOC Biologist

After many years of slaughtering deer , Deer Vehicle Accident are just as high as ever in NJ
http://www.njdeercrash.org/

Update NJ largest increase of Deer Vehicle Accident 54% 2009

and with no end in site. Hunting is a business and they have no intention of keeping deer population low for they need the deer for hunting recreational purpose. After mass killing the deer will compensate for the loss by giving birth to twin and sometimes triplets. The hunting public knows this , DNR knows this and that is why DVA are the highest in the states with the most hunters. Deer Birth Control is the only way and it work yet the DNR and Hunters REJECTS IT! They do not care about human lives only about their disgusting desire to kill innocent sentient being for "sports".

The Analysis of Deer Management in NJ

Many pro-kill state agencies have this kind of agendas.

The Inescapable Conclusion

Those who indulge in the antiquated bow-and-arrow type of hunting knowingly commit
each living creature they hit to lingering agony, and this is true whether the wound is
eventually fatal or not. These animals endure prolong suffering before they collapse and
die.
As this report has shown, the following facts about bowhunting are inescapable:
* Bowhunting is inhumane and wasteful.
* Bowhunters do not want to talk about the wounding issue and archery wounding
is the most denied problem in bowhunting.
Wounding and crippling losses are inevitable.
*Shot placement is, for all practical purposes, random due to the difficulty in
shooting arrows accurately. There is absolutely no sure way to kill a deer
instantly with a bow
*More often than not, poorly hit deer are lost and not recovered.
*The main cause of infection in the wound is todays multi-bladed broadhead
arrow
* Almost all abdominally shot deer die a slow death from peritonitis with the
average time of death measured in agonizing days or weeks rather than in
minutes or hours.
* The use of bowhunting as a method to control deer population densities is
ineffective. Bowhunting is not a population control measure; it is a recreational
pursuit.
Humans are provided with the capacity to imagine for a variety of reasons. And we have
the capacity to imagine empathetically for a singular reason—we can appreciate the pain
of others without experiencing it firsthand. Balancing the needs of humans and animals
is a difficult and complex task. If communities decide that deer herds must be managed,
it is reprehensible to reduce the taking of animal life to a recreational activity for
bowhunting enthusiasts. t

Hunting causes overpopulation? How is that possible?

http://mathew5-7.blogspot.com/2009/04/what-is-compensatory-rebound-effect-and...

Do deer suffer from bowkillers? Yes they do and use of bow is the most barbaric of all killing because their death involves hemorrhaging , suffocating in their blood or die in their own poison. But watch this video of how bowkillers teaches others bowkillers to wait for at 45 min. before persuing the animals.

Me...I hunt for meat, not for sport, not for animal control, but for meat (not that I have anything against those who do). My dad always taught us respect of the animal. I cant go to the food market & buy venison or pheasant, so I have to get it on my own. Survival of the strongest, and my God given dominion over animal. Nothing makes me more angry then to see a deer splattered on the highway that could have gone to feed a starving family. if It helps control deer population, then all the better

[Mercy4Wildlife]

I believe that every hunter should eat what they kill EVERYTHING not dump it to the pantries. With the risk of prions(CWD/Mad deer disease) hunters are risking innocent human lives for prions are very deadly. Those carcasses are non-usda inspected so who is to know and its easy to "give" what you don't want isn't it? The "give to the pantries" are a great way to put a fake halo over the sadist head.

One has to simply laugh at people like Mercy4Wildlife. When they say things like "Man is designed for plants not for meat" that's a huge clue as to how warped they really are. You could point out your teeth to them, it wouldn't matter.

Just keep killing deer or squirrels or rabbits, moose elk bear whatever and enjoy the flavor of wild game.

[TrueGraffArt]

this is such bullshit. just because gun hunting is more of a guaranteed kill, bow hunting still helps. alot. in new jersey where i live, most deer are in areas which cannot be hunted, (such as neighborhoods) hunting has been around since the start of earth. you cant birth control deer. dont fuck with the wild. let it be. hunt free.

[SunChaserWildlife]

@TrueGraffArt Bowhunting stats speak volumes. Hunting in neighborhoods is called "culling" which does not work, is purely for sport, causes grief, and would not be needed if states were not artificially manipulating high game populations. The more hunters that come to their state, the more P-R Gun Tax money they get. That isn't wildlife management, it's running a commercial operation with funds from a public that doesn't approve (or doesn't know). Don't fuck with the wild? Tell management first

[Mercy4Wildlife]

Really Zack? Then why are Texas producing deer?

"Thus, late fall up to early winter is very important for deer herd managers to impact and influence fawn production, so make sure the plant communities on your property is properly managed deer habitat. " Deer Hunting and Management TX

[Mercy4Wildlife]

Did you know in Wisconsin last deer killing season 68,000 wounded deer were not recovered by hunters now I wonder how many in other states. ? That is A LOT of pain and suffering for your sports and trophy. Sports hunters cause indirect suffering to animals in slaughterhouse for food and direct suffering of sentient animals in the animals own home for sports.

[Mercy4Wildlife]

The only place that hunting money goes to is to "conserve" land to use as a killing field and to create large deer herd for recreational killing as human continue to die from deer vehicle accidents and hunting accidents. Just recently a young women in college shot by a hunter and died. Another one a child and mom on horse shot little before Thanksgiving. What a way to start a holiday huh?

[Mercy4Wildlife]

"Dominion" does not mean to destroy or kill sentient beings, God wanted you to be the caretaker.

Sorry the "food" excuse don't fly here because if its really about "food" you would not be here making excuses you be out surviving. Deer Vehicle Accidents has GONE UP as the result of hunting so what does that say to you?

[Mercy4Wildlife]

I bet the slave owners said the same "they'll never" too before it was abolished.

[BronxBombers4life123]

ok if hunting isnt doing anything lets start mass extiction.....lets get some automatic weapons and all walk through the woods and blast away anything that moves.....you people are pathetic...hunting will never stop...it never has..so get used to it

[chiropractor1969]

Apparently you are a vegitarian who wants all forms of habitat destroyed.

Hunting is less cruel than penning and drugging a cow. It is also healthier.

Money from a hunting license goes to support wildlife and its habitat.

Instead of chosing a side because of misinformation, look at both sides.

STUPID are the misinformed.
