## Resource

Tasmania’s government rolls out new deer hunting rules meant to curb the exploding fallow deer population—but farmers say it’s not enough. While landowners can now shoot deer year-round outside protected zones, the most affected areas still have strict limits, leaving both hunters and farmers frustrated. Farmers are pushing for deer to be declared a pest and demand compensation for crop damage, arguing that without full protection lifted, numbers won’t drop. Critics call the changes a missed opportunity, with hunters worried restrictions will keep things status quo. With deer numbers soaring in just five years, many question whether this is truly a solution—or just a band-aid. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
