"aggressive deer and what can be done about them."

Kill them and eat them?

A few years back, the City Council approved fines for anyone who feeds deer – with penalties now reaching $475.

Uh huh. The last time I visited Orygone it was as infested with stinking liberals as is kalifornia. And everybody knows liberals are above the law.

They're feeding the cute bambis and are reaping the result of their tree hugging silliness.

They're allowing residents to build anti deer fences? Stupid liberals. They need to open hunting season. Give the meat to soup kitchens, whatever.

Liberals. The bane of civilization.

“Resident Ann Barton questioned if city or state officials would approve birth control for deer, or, more dramatically, an organized kill”

WTH.....People as a whole have collectively lost their ability to use their brains...

We have a very effective solution to the problem of animals attacking humans. You wear it on your hip and keep it loaded.

I plinked a doe in my back yard with my BB gun

They now visit my neighbors next door but not me

We seem to have at least 10 identifiable resident deer in the neighborhood

All was well till they ate wife’s pride and joy caladiums

Ashland, surrounded by conservative Southern Oregon, is the most liberal scum hole in Oregon....devolved beyond Eugene and Portland. Child sacrifice is the norm...but don’t touch an animal. Immediately after 9-11, the local scum were burning American flags that people had on display in their yards.

Even animals understand the blokes have disarmed themselves. Maybe the rabbits will turn on them as well. Nature. You got to love it.

Ashland is a liberal enclave. They deserve this Bambi beatdown.

Did Oregon recently raise its tobacco excise taxes?

Below is a story about a deer stealing cigarettes from someone:

Beau has been at Bear Camp up in, ‘Da Nort’ Woods’ for the past two weeks. (I can smell him from here, LOL!) He’s been guiding for the various Hunt Clubs that cycle through.

So far, 18 Black Bear have been taken from 150 lbs. up to 409 lbs., dressed.

Last night he told me he’s seen more deer this year than ever before, and the younger dogs-in-training are sometimes taking off to chase them, vs, chasing the bears, which is not something you want in a Bear Dog, of course!

So, I’d agree it’s most likely a problem. Beau spends more time in the field than he does at work or home combined, so he notices this stuff. ;)

“All was well till they ate wife’s pride and joy caladium.”

Oh, boy! That’s definitely a reason to shoot first and ask questions later, LOL!

Beau had our steer, ‘Dinner,’ tied out on the west side of the house to graze. He had a little too much rope and ate ALL of the Hosta on that side of the house.

Yeah, I wasn’t entirely HAPPY about that - but Hosta grow back - like weeds!

And besides, we later ate him, LOL! ;)

In the past, some cities overrun with deer have brought in professionals who, after dark, go out with silenced, low velocity rifles, night scopes and quietly wipe out the deer.
They drag them to a truck where they are quietly processed into meat for soup kitchens.
