Several years ago, here in the People's Republic of Massachusetts, they opened up deer hunting on the land surrounding the Quabbin Reservoir in the central part of the state because of the starvation issue. To protest the "slaughter" some idiot woman put on a brown jump suit, literally tied deer antlers on her head, and started jogging around the woods intentionally trying to get shot. Fortunately, for both her and some poor slob hunter who may have actually done it, she was stopped by game wardens. I'm all for conservation and the environment but I'll be damned if I would sacrifice myself over any species, never mind one that's not on the endangered list.
