A record 78,000 deer were culled last year, up from 55,000 the prior year. Experts are pushing for better data, stronger venison markets, and land management strategies, while deer stalking courses attract farmers and eco-conscious hunters seeking humane solutions.

Everyone agrees: deer must be managed, but how remains a heated, urgent question. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
