Biologist says white-tailed deer are CARNIVORES!!!

[ShootSpeeders]

That's what this wacko scientist claims but she's female and thus an affirmative action hire so who knows how good she really is.. Wouldn't surprise me if she's illiterate.

Seeing fewer quail on your hunting lease? Maybe it's time you stop pointing the finger at coyotes, raccoons and fire ants and place the blame on your murderous herd of white-tailed deer.

Believe it or not, researchers have discovered deer will raid the happy homes of ground-nesting birds and enjoy a nice breakfast of eggs or fledglings.

Pam Pietz, a wildlife biologist at the U.S. Geological Survey's Northern Prairie Wildlife Research Center in North Dakota, set up miniature video cameras that ran 24 hours a day to document the fate of grassland songbird nests,according to the USGS.

She was surprised to find deer raided as many nests as badgers, and more than weasels or red foxes.

Almost anything will eat eggs.

If we don't get a grip on feral hogs we aren't going to have much of anything.

We could just have a great big world's largest barbacue

You can't eat them as fast as they breed.

We need some sort of feed that sterilizes them.

They are no laughing matter.

They even wipe out snakes.

 

[Coyote]

I know, I'm aware of the problems they cause.

This is certainly an odd tie-in to affirmative action.

There is a profound difference between a carnivore and an omnivore...​

Hey einstein. You saying baby birds are plants??

A few eggs does not make a herbivore an omnivore though.

Nor does a little kitty grass make a cat an omnivore.

But I am an omnivore, I can live on most anything.

Look up carnivore.

She said, essentially, they are scavenging, and she's not the only one to have made that observation.

When a woman gets a science job you can bet she got it thru special treatment. They make ok social workers and english teachers but on a job that involves thinking, they can't cut it.

Scavenging? She never said the baby birds were dead? What is wrong with you?

I'm far from a feminist supporter,in fact my wife calls me a pig on a regular basis.
But I promise you my wife is vastly smarter than you,or me for that matter.
I will say men generally have more common sense though.
No insult to women,just an observation.
