I think we're all pretty surprised. We are so used to having to brace ourselves when it comes to media representation for hunting in Australia. One thing to remember when the government says 'hunting cannot control deer numbers' is that next breath they say 'migratory birds that can just fly away (ducks) have to have limits on how many are shot because duck hunters will wipe them out in a month'. The concepts are mutually exclusive. A bird being wiped out in a 1 month season even though it can up and leave, literally flying away from a pressured hunting spot, and hunting taking thousands of deer a year out of the environment being of little control value are OBVIOUSLY being used to back a position that cannot be justified.

@@DieNibelungenliad The term 'sustainable' and phrase 'billions of people' shouldn't be in the same sentence as each other. It's just not a worthwhile discussion to spark up because the population issue is possibly the biggest contributor to the mess we have found ourselves in. No one grabs us by the scruff of our neck and drags us to the supermarket, forces our hand to pick up pre-packaged meat and put it into the trolley. You can make the decision to hunt your own meat, farm your own meat, eat less meat or eat no meat. The opportunities are endless, and so are the excuses. "It's not realistic for me to farm my own meat, I work full time and have three kids." - said one consumer.

The phrase minority rurans it for the majority runs true in hunting unfortunately. It is up to the educated to teach the uneducated.

This was a really positive way to show how recreational hunters are not just some blood thirsty group. We actually care for the environment and respect what it has to offer. Deer are here to stay whether the government like it or not, in this story it was pointed out that the Victorian government doesn't deem hunter to have been or are an effective means of deer control but I think most would agree otherwise. The government say this because it justifies their work and spending which a lot of the time isn't ethical or cost effective for the tax payer. There is also an element of control swindled in there somewhere to.

you're going to eat the cats? Or is there a market for the hides? Is there some utilization? Not sure its hunting if you're not using the animal. I provide a reasonable amount of the meat eaten by my extended family, but I don't delude myself into thinking I am making any kind of difference to the feral goat problem in mid western NSW. Hunting brings a host of benefits, respect for the land, food, sense of accomplishment etc, but its not a very effective management tool. It tends to disperse animals over wider areas, often the specific animal selection tends towards mature males which makes no difference to the breeding capability of the herd. Yep hunting should be more broadly allowed, but trapping and baiting are more effective management tools for problematic invasive species.

Spending money in farming and country towns with no other tourism, buying food at pubs, spending on fuel, equipment and accommodation. And nothing tastes better than an old family recipe with game meat you collected!

Premiers capitulating around the country and ‘banning hunting’ with bows. All that does is force hunters to buy a rifle. Hunting is about being in nature. Understanding the food chain end to end. Respecting animals, and becoming more self sufficient. If you want to talk about murdering… look at a dinner table where there is far too much food on the table and the unnecessary loss of life that happens at that moment. Hunt. Respect. Live.
