I don't see anything wrong with it.

Another participant stated that it was the commercial sale of wildlife that led to the destruction of wildlife to begin with, especially in the late 1800s and early 1900s.

that is what is wrong with it

you go to jail in Virginia but when I visited grand mother & father in Germany 1955 you could find more venison than beef in butcher shops
the people that could legally hunt did not get to keep the deer it belonged to the State and state sold to butcher shops
tell Bubber you are going to take his deer & let me know how that worked out for you [}:)][;)]

Bad idea. There are already to many domestic herds. Domestic herds should be for research and protection purposes, not for profit. The cats out of the bag and we can't put it back, but we can stop progression.

It wouldn't bother me if they thinned out the herds. They're a nuance around here. You can't have a garden because of those damn things. They'll go out of their way to eat flowers or anything else you put out in the yard. [:(!]

They cause a lot more deaths due to vehicle crashes than all the dangerous animals, snakes and spiders put together.

If the people that smacked deer with a car would harvest the recoverable meat prisons and soup kitchens would never have an empty freezer.

bad idea, selling venison that is hunted. game farms would be ok, but with restrictions. must eliminate the market hunting aspect.

Elk and deer farms was the major reason cwd, chronic wasting was spread trough out the Midwest.

Imagine how much bandwidth would be saved if people would read an article before responding.

But such a request is silly, is it not?

Human Beings have eaten domesticated meat-factories of all types for millennia.

Who gives a rat's * as to how it is raised?

Personally, I would only eat free-range deer, raised in a positive environment that celebrates the past, present, and future possibilities of these beautiful animals to provide sustenance to humans. I fully support our right as a specie to benevolently breed them, raise them, and then shoots them in the base of the skull so as to achieve the best possible quality of meat by minimizing the trauma associated with any strife or struggle as they die.

No kidding!

So what about moose, elk, antelope bison, etc to name a few. You can buy those on line as well as at most of your bigger super markets.

There is a bison ranch near me. Several stores and meat markets locally sell the meat. Haven't tried any yet.[8D]

They're talking about farm raised deer in the article, not hunter harvested. Farm venison has been for sale for decades. We have a sausage factory here that sells it online. The physical act of butchering domestic deer for meat doesn't bother me as much as the interstate sale of domestic deer infecting wild herds with CWD and jeopardizing the natural resource. That is exactly what happened in Wisconsin. They now have double fences made higher, but the horse has already left the barn. Or the deer has jumped the pen.
