Just got back from a road trip. What does that have to do with chronic wasting disease you ask? Our northern state has been tightly regulating deer licenses.
We are overrun with deer. Eating fields and fields of crops. The farmers can kill like 20 and there’s a herd of 70....They are dead all over the shoulders of the road.
I hardly saw any roadkill in any other state. It was weird. I literally cannot go 5 miles without seeing at least 4 dead deer, 3 raccoons and a couple of possums. I think we need wolves. The government solution to chronic wasting disease will always be a failure if we rely on their never ending political solutions based on ‘science’.
Sounds like they need to loosen up, but there is crazy on the horizon. Apparently both Colorado and Oregon are considering outlawing harming (farming!) animals. No killing them, no sexually assaulting them, and pretty much making it illegal to raise animals for meat. Btw, the sexual assault refers to breeding them. That would be illegal.
Proposed ballot initiatives in Oregon and Colorado would ban the practice of farming animals. An Oregon ballot initiative proposed for 2022 would effectively criminalize the farming of food animals in the state by classifying their slaughter as aggravated abuse and redefining artificial insemination and castration as sexual assault.
Hopefully these are just one of those bills that no other lawmakers take seriously.

Regulating deer license is an attack on the hunter putting game in the freezer to feed his family/
Used to hunt for Hunters for the Hungry. Our state shut it down.
A lot of game meat was destroyed by the state. Tons of meat destroyed.
Shameful. Humans have a natural right to food.
