Yeah, so it is much more humane to let deer die slowly from
starvation and disease than to allow hunting?  Deer are cute.  I
don't hear anyone complaining about fishing.  More fish are
killed in one DAY than deer in one season of hunting.  

How about cats and Dogs?  How many animals do we humanely put
down to avoid being inundated with strays?

And please don't give me the bit about how all hunters waste the
game they take.  Every hunter I have ever met uses the meat they
take from their kill.  

Why is humans hunting deer any different than lions hunting
zebra?
