DEER: No more killing, please

In response to the article on dead deer being found in Dalton Gardens. Whoever is responsible for this, needs to be held accountable. The deer in this area have been fed by the people for years, thinking that they are so cute. And now they are a nuisance, because they are now eating your plants!

It has not been determined as of yet whether poison is the cause of these deaths, but if this is the case, it is a criminal offence and should be dealt with immediately. The consequences of the possible use of poison could be devastating to area pets and beyond!

There are other ways of handling this then resorting to these kind of measures. Let the City Council and the Idaho Department of Fish and Game come to a solution without any more senseless killing!
