1. What methods do people think of to deal with the growing population of white-tailed deer?
Catching and moving them to other places; developing chemicals to control the deer population; bringing in natural enemies of deer; building tall walls around areas to keep out the deer.
2. Do you think "leaving the deer alone" is a good idea? Why or why not?
Yes. Because animal populations in an area naturally go up and down over time. Doing nothing means that some deer will die of hunger or illness, but finally, the population will reach a size within the carrying capacity of the environment. / No. Because many deer will die of hunger, others grow up small and unhealthy, and increased numbers of deer near roads can cause traffic accidents. (Either is acceptable)
