Hunting widow's

We have a lot of deer here too. I hit two with my old Tahoe and it's not a fun thing to do!

Janet, does have a lot of deer in her area. We saw a few when we were out driving.

Almost my whole family hunts, and I grew up on meat my dad hunted or we fished! I love deer sausage, and my dad usually gets pepperoni and beer sticks made too. As for moose, I like moose roasts but not really steaks or anything like that. My dad, his friend, my uncle, and my cousin went out and got 4 moose last month, so our freezers are going to be well-stocked!
When we get low on meat, there are a lot of farms near my parents' house that raise elk and bison, so we sometimes just buy one between a few family members and split it up.
And yes, there are a LOT of deer and moose up here, so my feelings on it are that we're controlling the population and feeding ourselves. It doesn't go to waste! I have never hit a deer but almost everyone I know has! A friend of mine hit a moose and completely smashed up her car beyond recognition, and she was stranded on the side of the highway in the middle of the night, until a trucker pulled over to give her a ride! Around here there are always wildlife in the ditches. There have even been deer wandering into the city! I remember a dead deer on an overpass a few years ago.

The maintenance workers here put fences up around all of our shrubbery in front of our houses this morning. I was talking to one of the guys who said they come in and eat the plants. I would love to see them up close. They are beautiful animals.

I knew a woman who actually had a buck for a house pet. How crazy is that. They can actually be very dangerous.

Isn't it wonderful that God provides such bounty for us. It seems that our whole continent has lots of deer.
