There's a group in the UK wanting to release wolf's to control the deer population, having experience with wolf's what do think of that idea?

IMHO this is right up there with Grass carp in the Mississippi basin, Lion fish in the Caribbean and Mongoose in Hawaii. Just another chance for humans to really screw up the balance of an ecosystem.

Belly of the Beast - Sporting Classics Daily

Roosevelt's "Belly of the Beast" tells of a hunt for elephants in cover so thick they can only be located by the rumbling of their stomachs.

Wolves don’t just kill deer. I love wolves as all animals but they definitely can be a problem for pets and livestock and certainly other native wildlife. Predators tend to thrive in good habitat and eventually will need to be controlled themselves. If they do not and really don’t have anything predating on them, it will have to be done by humans. Imo hunting would make much more sense as the deer are the only quarry harmed and they fill your freezer. I much prefer a nice venison roast over a wolf hind

This was my best whitetail from the 2021 deer season. It's a small rack but one of the G1's split and made it a 9 pointer. You realize how heavy these things are when your dragging it out of the woods. I use my ice fishing sled for that.

The claim is "wolf's prefer to hunt deer" that to me sounds like given the option they'd rather chase deer than take sheep which are easy prey by comparison, i doubt that very much regardless of their studies.

There's 10,000s of uk population that would happily control the deer population and get fed from it if they were allowed to, between gun laws and animals rights cuntsters its near impossible to shoot, snare or trap anything.

Check this bunch of bollox over a old goat getting shot.

Htf does a goat getting shot get brought up in parliament, to prevent this happening again.

Someone was asking about hunting apps,
HUNTSTAND is the one i use. Has every relevant spec you need, including a wind zone cone, weather qnd property line intel, plus a variety of info such as stqnd placement, camerq locations, trail and sign icons, and harvest logs. Price point is good, and i wouldnt use anything else.
Huntstand. Its the bomb.

One of my target bucks. One of the things i love about thus buck, is how far outside his ears his antlers go. Dont see that too often, except with the big boys. 24 days to bow season here!

One of my favorite pic's.
A relative is having serious life troubles and I built this Prayer rock cairn in the mountains of the Alaska range while hunting Moose in their honor.
