The "belongs to everyone" argument is invalid. I live in Texas. Most people live somewhere else. I hint in mcmullen county...people that hunt 10 miles away from will never see The deer on the low fence place I hunt. The deer there won't be available to you or 99.9999% of the other hunters in this country, for the simple fact deer just dont travel that far.
A small percentage of the deer that live near the perimeter might be available to the adjacent landowner, thats about as "everyone" as
It gets You guys make it sound like if there were no high fence, there would be a line of people standing outside to get their portion of a natural resource that belongs to them. Many times, the neighbor is the reason for the high fence in the first place. Remember that saying, good fences make good neighbors?
If a landowner should have to pay you for a deer behind a high fence, should I be able to bill you for when one of "your" deer eats the plants at my house, or jumps in front of my truck and causes thousands of dollars in damage?
Should I be able to charge the state for the deer eating food off the land?
Of course I already know what you'll say... Because its always the same one way argument when it comes down to it.
does anyone know why deer are so special, and there is this huge argument about not being able to confine them? I mentioned earlier about other resources being owned... bought....sold....traded.... manipulated. Why should deer be exempt?
