To the editor:
What an odd choice of words, or perhaps a mere Freudian slip: "... bowhunters in Fairfield County have enjoyed both a longer season ..." - describing what we are to believe is a public service performed by a dedicated group of hunters! ("Deer hunters claim success in culling herd," Greenwich Time, Aug. 7)
I strongly disagree with the statement that "since 2003, the state's Department of Environmental Protection has tried to curb deer overpopulation." What in the world was the impetus that particular year? In fact, the DEP has been doing it for far longer than that, and hasn't succeeded yet.
All one hears is, "we've got to kill deer to reduce the herds," when in fact it's exactly the opposite! Managing deer to keep herd numbers high is the real game plan so that a good supply of deer is available ad infinitum. How easy it is to pull the wool over most people's eyes!
Bowhunting is not an effective management tool; it is inefficient (in terms of deer killed or maimed) and strictly recreational. The idea that these noble public servants want to expand their blood sport onto more private property is an interesting concept. There aren't enough of them, and their numbers are dwindling, unless they import out-of-towners. Do residents really want bowhunters and strangers in their backyards?
Scott Ragone, president of the Greenwich Landowners and Sportsmen Association, says "There's no doubt the numbers (of deer) are down." Based on his assessment, shouldn't they give deer a break for a change?
I chuckle whenever I hear hunters' concern for other animals - animals that might suffer because deer destroy their habitat. Now, that's a real stretch!
