minus-squaregrysbok@lemmy.sdf.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up13·2 months agoTo add a wrinkle: there’s now “farmed deer”. It’s supposedly more environmentally friendly than farmed cow, but I don’t like it because •vague feelings I’ve not fully examined•. So don’t assume any venison you find in the grocery store was hunted.
minus-squaresetVeryLoud(true);@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up7·2 months agoVague feelings? I think your feelings are pretty spot-on, farming an animal whose population is already excessive in the wild is bizarre. Wild deer are more environmentally friendly than farmed deer.

minus-squareMachinist@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·2 months agoFarmed cervids are why CWD (Chronic Wasting Disease) is a thing. It’s a prion disease. Farmed venison has a high probability of being CWD positive. It’s called a high fence operation. Rich fucks actually pay for a canned hunt inside the fence so they get a big antlered wall hanger. Myself and my family like to eat does. Curbs population faster and tends to be better meat. We live in a county that is overpopulated with white tail.
