This is sad to read. Why does the human race always find the need to control everything about this planet. Why don't we let nature take it's own path...

Well, we kill off all the natural predators, so we have to take their place. Since you don't want the public around a bunch of beered up good ole boys with guns, the parks have to be closed for the safety of the public.

Think about it before you post, if hunters did not help control the population of deer they would all starve to death. Not to mention disease, it's the DNR's job to make sure there is a healthy and balanced herd through out the State. Write Oprah, maybe she will listen to you!
