Guest guest Posted November 18, 2008 Report Share Posted November 18, 2008 Oh, but all the hunters have to "keep the populations down" so they won't starve to death, right? That poor buck. All for antler size! I am literally sick. Just another lie to expose hunters with. Another big whitetail buck was stolen last weekend from an Okla. City breeder. It was checked in later by a deer hunter claiming it was shot in the wild. This buck was killed in its pen with two shots from a bow and arrow. It was than dragged away from the deer ranch in Okla. City. The breeder noticed that "Pretty Boy", which was a 2-year-old whitetail buck with 239 inches of antlers, was missing last Sunday morning. This buck was on loan to the breeder from another breeder who was hoping to breed the buck to some of his does. The semen from this buck was valued at $1500 last year. The buck was checked in at a Choctaw hunter check station last week. There was a tip which led the game wardens and Cleveland County deputies to a barn in a rural area of the county. There they discovered the deer carcass but no arrests have been made. The carcass was returned to the breeder but game wardens has kept the antlers as evidence. Breeding white-tailed deer is becoming big business in Okla. This is one of the easiest places in the country to get such a license. There are now 193 commercial deer breeders in Okla. and are licensed by the state Dept. of Agriculture, Food and Forestry. Much like stock contractors who breed bucking bulls for professional rodeos and bull riding events, commercial deer breeders are growing massive antlers on deer thru genetics and proper nutrition. Breeder bucks with more than 200 inches of antlers are generally sold for $25,000 or more. These deer can potentially bring six-figure incomes for the buyers. However, one drawback for these deer is that Boone and Crockett does not recognize any trophy animal that has been raised in captivity, even if it was loose in the wild when it was harvested by a hunter. I HATE that word! It isn't "harvested", it's brutally murdered! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 18, 2008 Report Share Posted November 18, 2008 Perhaps with this coming out into the open this will be exposed. That the reason for hunting them is not to stop them starving to death, thats such a lame excuse that they use...they just want the biggest Antlers on their walls.
