Oh Deer, what can the matter be?

If you're squeamish? Don't look! Oh well! This is life. Some idiot jacked a doe across from us one Sunday night not too long ago. Got chased off before he could drag her off. Such a sad thing to happen. She was one of a pair of does I had been watching. Beautiful. I called them my girls. Well, DNR and the local police were called. They keep watch now and again in the field. We ended up getting the doe, her life wasn't wasted. In these hard times she'll feed us. I DO NOT like hunting for sport, but I do believe in hunting for food and keeping the herd down- it keeps them healthy and people fed. We've killed off the natural predators, so it's up to us to manage them. *SIGH*
