Should breeding for big antler racks be regulated?

A new group called Texans for Saving our Hunting Heritage is calling for limits on the way Texas whitetail deer are bred for hunting. The group’s executive director, Jenny Sanders, said deer hunting in Texas is moving far from the sport it once was because landowners are using pharmaceuticals to produce deer that hunters pay to kill.

“We feel that deer-breeding has gotten a little out of hand in Texas,” Sanders said. “It has gone from a genetic enhancement tool to a tool for put-and-take hunting. We’re using extreme animal husbandry practices to create massive antlers in a factory farming-type scenario.”
