You left out wasting disease.If these animal lovers would go out into the woods and care for the deer.....I'm guessingActually the buck looks kinda puny - maybe 150 pounds. Nice rack though and i guess that's what matters. From the blood stain it looks like he gut-shot the poor thing. Don't like that. Maybe spent hours dying.
Ted Nugent posts pics of massive buck kill Glory Hallelujah - Washington Times
Iconic rocker-turned-conservative pundit Ted Nugent took to Facebook to share his version of a perfect Thanksgiving: a photo of a massive buck he brought down with a bow and arrow.
His accompanying text, next to the photo of the multi-point antler kill: “OH LORDY LORDY GLORY GLORY HALLELUJAH! Happy ThanXgiving every damn day in the mystical deer grounds of America ya all! The beast is dead long live the mighty beast!”
Did they charge him extra sedating and putting it in a tiny cage before he murdered it, or did they give him a freebie being a celeb?
A. You are not familiar with Ted place in TX or MI
B. While high fence hunts are not my cup of tea I hold nothing against those that do. But it's obvious from your post you are clueless as to those preserves
As a side note it is obvious your not very knowledge of white tail deer. High fence preserves are often in excess of 1K acres not a small enclosure you may envision. While you may feel the animals are not able to come and go as the normally would it is not quite true. A whitetails home range is on average 350 acres and given ample water and food they will spend their life on that 3-400 acres. While some deeds home range expands in summer and depending on the doe population a buck may expand his home range during the rut, most stick close to their home range
Get some show of his here on one of the obscure cable channels with gun stuff. Have seen deer in the wild. Only difference is I've never felt the urge to murder a beautiful animal. Well, not the ones that go on four legs at any rate.
If you do not want to hunt, then don't hunt. But do be aware that, with the complete lack of predators, the only thing limiting whitetail population growth is hunting, automobiles, and starvation. Of the three, hunting is by far the most humane. The monies paid by the hunters for licences, fees and extra taxes are also the lion's share of the budget for many state conservation efforts.
