They do and are planning to donate it to the AFAC food pantries. Another uproar going on there.
I think Arlington should hold a public referendum to decide the venison jerky flavors. We can't leave a decision like that to a corporate overlord.
I think we should hold a referendum on shooting indigenous animals.

lol.
The hunters hunt with hunting rifles (not machine-guns) or hunting bows, and they take home the deer carcass to either process it themselves or to a butcher.
You need to get out more or at least read a book outside your normal scope.

Yeah the effing naturalist lobby
https://armn.org/deer-population-and-forest-health/
Staff don't even live in Arlington but get to choose and board just nods meekly.
The second poll showed remarkable reversal in opinion about lethal means but no one ever answered questions about differences in sample dise, response rates, responder demographics. It was rigged.

It's basically sentient mammals killed in family groups after being baited with food, so that County favored vegetation can grow better. Plants over mammals.
It's twisted.
iow, the tree lobby

The good citizens of Arlington should adopt the deer and make them family pets.

Brilliant plan Arlington; just bloody brilliant
Invite armed rednecks in to shoot off guns all night long (my dogs will be miserable for days) just to murder innocent, defenceless baby deer.
FFS !
You claim to care about the lives of animals - but you admit to owning multiple dogs???
WTAF?
Are you just a troll who got a little sloppy? Or are you a stark raving hypocrite who thinks your own actions are somehow above reproach? You said “your dogs” - so clearly you possess these animals, is that correct? And you don’t see a problem with that?
Animals are not here for your amusement or to be your little slave/companions. You screech about wanting to protect deer while not seeing your own brutality.
What a loon you are.
+1
Plus, she would rather the baby dear startve to death, which I guess in her mind is much more humane. Truly idiotic.
