Funny you should write that about eating deer- I literally am just returning from one fo the best meals I've had in a long time venison cooked with blueberries - I wonder why deer meat is not more readily available and "farmed" like say, buffalo ?

I'm not a hunter and we don't have deer in the middle of Silicon Valley, but
I wonder... is it legit to shoot the deer who come onto your property? I
know that mule deer tend to over-populate in California. Probably the food
value of the deer would be greater than the vegetables one is growning.

Our problem is snails and (in some areas) gophers. I think Brock Dolman
suggested eating gophers, and I know our snails are edible -- in fact
gourmet items.

Eating pests would seem to be a direct way to solve the problem.
