CAPTIVE ...Mt. Lebanon, a community with character.<br /><br /><b>CAPTIVE BOLT METHOD FOR DEER IS CRUEL</b><br /><br />Editor, Echoes-Sentinel, July 14, 2005 <br /><br />On behalf of the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) and its 7.7 million members [now over 12 million] and constituents, I am writing to object strongly to your plan to use trapping and the captive bolt as a management tool for white-tailed deer. <br /><br />The HSUS is committed to preventing needless pain and suffering to all animals. It is cruel to attempt to euthanize a wild animal with a captive bolt gun because the animal will suffer needlessly and terribly. There is nothing remotely humane in this process. <br /><br />Captive bolt guns are designed for use on RESTRAINED domestic animals, typically in slaughterhouses. The "humaneness" of this device has been called into question under those circumstances as well. <br /><br />There is ample documentation about the cruel, slow deaths suffered by domestic animals in slaughterhouses. These guns were not designed for use on wild animals under any circumstances, certainly not as a management tool for white-tailed deer. <br /><br />I urge you, on behalf of the Humane Society of the United States and its members to reconsider and remove the captive bolt gun consideration. <br /><br />Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or would like to discuss the matter further. <br /><br /><b>John W.

Yes, better to invite DeNicola to his back yard to shoot a high powered rifle to blow the brains out of that tame deer and threaten the safety of the entire community than to ask his neighbor to fence off the apple tree feeding the deer and attracting these menacing deer to his yard. Allowing his 4 year old daughter, who was delighted with joy to see the deer, watch DeNicola shoot the doe and her bleed to death, or watch him put a plastic bag over the deer's head to smother her (see video below), will teach his daughter, who loves animals, a valuable lesson in compassion, mercy, and family values. So disappointed in Grella's uninformed position. Don't know if Grella came up with this stupidity on his own, or if Barbara Logan has already poisoned the well of Democrat candidates, and got them all to commit to her personal obsession of slaughtering deer if elected. ps.
