Say No To Bc Deer Bounty And Killings! posted on March 2, 2013
Veggie farmers and politicians in Central Saanich, British Columbia (BC) are trying to change various levels of law to kill deer who are being attracted to crops. This could include a bounty on deer, increased kill limits, sharp shooters, and First Nations hunters.
Most people would not make the connection that buying organic fruits and veggies could result in deer being killed. Some Vancouver Island organic growers want this massive slaughter. Some won’t even fence their crop lands and won’t implement other nonlethal controls.
In addition, the BC government has told Lifeforce that they are proposing to change legislation in order to permanently permit such non-lethal methods.
