New York had a deer problem on Staten Island, and instead of just opening up a controlled hunt like normal people, they decided to spend millions of dollars giving bucks vasectomies. Yes, really. Government wildlife management got so ridiculous that the plan was, “We can’t let hunters shoot the deer, but we can pay people a pile of money to catch them, sedate them, cut them, tag them, release them, and hope they stop making more deer.” This is what happens when people who hate hunting still have to deal with the same wildlife problems hunters have been solving forever. They don’t want deer killed, they don’t want nature managed by hunters, but they still want fewer deer eating flowers, getting hit by cars, and overrunning neighborhoods. So instead of venison, conservation money, and a practical solution, they got a government-funded deer vasectomy program. By the way this doesn’t stop a few bucks from breeding every doe. You almost have to respect how hard they worked to avoid common sense. — Stephen Ziegler Outdoor writer | Owner, DeLong Lures
