District Fish and Wildlife Supervisor Last year alone almost deer were killed in road accidents it was just good luck that occupants of the vehicles were not also injured or killed But said the controlled hunt is mainly in response to bitter complaints from the Region Agricult ural Committee Members have reported extensive damage to crops trees and orchards from grazing herds of deer One landowner complained that deer have killed 200 fruit trees on his property Deer numbers have steadily increased ever since the regular hunting season was closed 13 years ago Deer hunting with bow and arrow Is allowed but has done little to thin the herd and ease problems Farmers and ministry staff are also concerned that diseases such as may be spread to cattle from deer if deer herd num bers remain high and continue to increase Finally Tupling said legitimate local sports men were upset Evidence Indicates that poachers are taking many deer Meanwhile real hunters who favour a gun season
