Does West Virginia compensate farmers who've lost crops to deer?

and a punt gun, I think.

Actually, I hate to mention this in public, but I'm starting to feel
like we should have the right to, poison, like slugs, deer that
forage on our crops. (An organic poison, of course.) I know this is a
retro view, but, then again, how do they really differ from, say, a
rat infestation? Except, of course, that the deer belong to the state
and the state believes that SOMEONE will pay a couple of weeks out of
the year to shoot them...

-Allan in WV where's he's now finding himself hoping there'd be a
OMRI approved deer poison bait that actually left the livers quite
edible...
