That's untrue jonny, if you and your deviant friends stopped
slaughtering the deer the population would in fact fall. It's
estimated deer numbers are 75% higher than they need to be in the USA
simply because of the rebound effect in population, directly caused by
hunters, who of course want high populations because it means they
don't have to walk so far to satisfy their deviant tendencies. Still,
if it wasn't deer it would be children or some other defenseless
creatures eh jonny?

The fact is it's not jonny. The decline in cod globally is down to
over fishing, pure and simple, obviously not simple enough for you
jonny, have a lot on your mind lately? lol

To avoid grizzlies, the Alaska Department of Fish & Game advises hikers
to wear noisy little bells on clothes and carry pepper spray. Also watch
for signs of activity: Black bear scat is smaller and contains berries;
grizzly scat has little bells in it and smells like pepper.
