The Wildlife Society just brought the following articles to my attention concerning the risks of captive deer breeding. Something more to read during the offseason. This is a topic which is raising more and more eyebrows every day.

I noticed this article from Indiana was posted on this forum just recently:

Also see this article from Wildlife Professional from a couple of years ago that offers links to a bit more factual information:

Very interesting read.
