actually not true. If you didn't know, Maine is 91% forest. That means a lot of deer. The state NEEDS people to hunt, or else the deer population gets out of control, and they eat all the plants, which kills all the rabbits, and so on. There is not enough food for all of the deer, so they need to be shot to control the popluation. Also, we eat them. I don't know were your food comes from, but would you rather have a deer roaming free, shot. Or a cow stuck in a pen it's whole life slaughtered to feed you. Think before you type
