    If you wish to participate more effectively in management for improved herd and habitat, it would be wise to shoot hinds instead.

    Shooting stags rather than hinds in areas with too many deer likely makes the problem worse - removal of some acute feed competition will allow more hinds to breed if fecundity is nutrition limited.


    This is not a value judgement, it is just answering the question.
