Urge Long Island to Halt Deer Massacre!
According to news sources, the Long Island Farm Bureau intends to contract with the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Wildlife Services to kill deer in local municipalities by using sharpshooters or by using netting to catch them so that they can be slaughtered, apparently in hopes of controlling the deer population. Animals who are shot often do not die outright. Wounded deer commonly “disappear,” only to succumb unseen to their injuries or to die from extreme stress or in attacks by other animals. And netting is a terrifying ordeal for these easily frightened prey animals, who thrash frantically when ensnared, often harming themselves in the process, and then endure rough handling before finally being killed.
Deer are beneficial to ecosystems because they distribute key nutrients. Even if population control is insisted upon, there is no need for lethal measures when effective, humane methods exist. Please politely urge the Long Island Farm Bureau to halt this cruel initiative—and then forward this alert widely!

I stand up against inhumane ways of killing any animal & you talk about netting & taking them to a slaughter house to be murdered? WT F! Try watching what Korea & China do to DOG’S & CAT’S for human consumption! It is barbaric & uncalled for. The true over populating the EARTH are US the PEOPLE/HUMAN’S! Not deer, wolf, bear just to name a few! I for one, am tired of reading about wildlife excuses, to murder these innocent animals for game! They use so many excuses to cover up their murderous legislation! Enough is enough lets put a stop to all of them deciding whats right & what’s best for the rest of us, who do not believe in their barbaric legislation!
