This is a really great article describing why the DNR is misrepresenting their intended target and introducing you to one of those “evil, irresponsible” hunting preserve operators. Whether you agree with the hunting preserves or not, the fact remains that they are a viable business that provides jobs and brings in tourism dollars. Are they any more evil than a Concentrated Animal Feeding Operation that raised their animals in small pens in barns, on concrete, and hires “mass killers” (butchers) to do the dirty work? As opposed to a “hunting preserve” where the animals live in spacious fields, behaving as they were meant to, enjoying naturally good health, and harvested by one person who will enjoy the gift of their life personally? This is what the DNR seeks to Declatory Rule out of existance.
