Bambi, Get Your Gun



Choose one of the editorials listed in the Resources section above.  Answer the "Identifying the Elements of Deductive Argument" questions on page 102 of PA of the "Identifying the Elements of Inductive Argument" questions on page 112 of PA.  Explain why you selected the set of questions you did.

The report starts of explaining the beauty of nature and how even nature can destroy it. Birds vs. Deer who would have thought? But alas the thesis continues to show the threat of to many deer in the wild. How they are eating all of the food for the birds specifically the bay-breasted or Canada warbler. The writer continues to say that the lack of hunters is a problem because deer are now apparently over populated. The author concludes with a less arguable solution. Such as fencing in some areas of the wild so that the deer cannot eat all of the vegetation. This could work and this practice is already being used. I guess the early deer gets the worm now.

  1. Well too much of anything thing can be a bad thing, this is even true in nature with animals i guess. But also while some birds do eat the vegetation on the ground that the deer have been eating they mostly use it as homes or for cover to escape from other predators and since the deer have been growing in number and eating so much of this vegetation on the ground it has left a lot of migratory birds without a place to call home or to get shelter from predators and the elements. But yea I guess it really is becoming the early deer gets the worm now.

    1. Yeah I agree with "too much of anything can be a bad thing." Its sad to see that wild life is fighting wild life just for food. But alas this is how the world works.

      Thanks for your comment. :)

  2. the highly over-populated deer is a problem for the birds but image if a high number of hunters would rise and start eliminating the deer in high quantity. in a couple of years the deer population would decrease so much that it would become a crisis similar to the case of the warblers. the birds would be safe but the deer would start decreasing. after saving the birds from the deer, it would now be a matter of savings the deer from hunters

    1. I agree with you. In my opinion the ecosystem is way to fragile, but there is not that much we can do about it. First there are many hunters, now there are to many deers. It keeps going back and forth.

      Thanks for your comment :)
