Deer Issue
-
To stop having an issue of over population of deer is not to hunt them down. Wildlife managers believe that if they look at the resources they have and the carrying capacity deers have to die. Many deers are starving because of the lack of resources so they need to be placed in a place that has a higher resource rate!

They believe they need to either re-locate the deers or put out a speacial chemical that decreases the birth rate. People also say that hunting them down is also a good option. What I believe is the best for the deers and safest is to re-locate them. This may be hard but it is better than the choice of killing them or decreasing birth rates. The negative part of moving the deers is moving them from their natural habitat is not good. What is good about decreasing birth rates might be that it is the best for the deers. It is for their sake not ours. There is no positive side of hunting except if you want to eat the deers.

If I was an ecologist, I would take half and re-locate them. This way is better for both sides. I believe that killing should not be an option. Moving them may have a negative side but it is best for the deers. The positive side is more postive than the negative is negative.
