In 1980, there were about 50,000 feral deer in Australia and by 2002 the population was estimated to have grown to 200,000. Now, the population is likely to have reached more than 2 million.

    First off we’re not America, we take care of our citizens. We don’t need to feed them carcasses killed by some rando.

    We’re definitely doing far better than the US, and while there’s room for improvement on taking care of our citizens, not even the US needs to feed them carcasses killed by volunteer hunters. Easily preventable food wastage alone can solve shortages, overproduction is the status quo.
