[TheForge] electric "firecracker"??? OT deer and goats

[Bob Ehrenberger]

I'm catching up on my mail and thought I'd throw in a comment on the guy
shooting the Llame.

When we had a small heavily wooded acreage we would put orange colars on our
goats so they wouldn't get misstaken for a deer.  We never lost one.

I help out at a local locker during the deer season and we took in close to
500 deer this last weekend.  It sure makes things safer on the roads to get
rid of 30,000 deer every fall. They are cutting down on the number of buck
tags this year to try and encoutage them to shoot more does.  Just the
opposit of when I was young and all you could get were buck tags. I guess
they managed to "Manage" us into a real deer over population.
