The headline on the news was that they may need birth control for deer. I just thought it was a little crazy.

Perhaps -- longer hunting seasons in suburban areas and shorter ones in rural areas.

DUH...yeah
and maybe these complaining farmers might want to try letting hunters on therir property to get the population down, and the city slickers should get a deer dart program going and move the deer to the country.

Recall hearing about a deer contraceptive a few years ago.

Got the opposite problem here I am afraid, and some farmers allow anyone to do whatever they want on their properties. Things continue on like they are here with liberal limits and increased numbers of hunters flocking to this particular area, the deer herd in this area may possibly be on its way to being eradicated.
