Each year in Iowa vehicle crashes involving deer cause numerous deaths. You don't hear people advocating the eradication of all deer from the state of Iowa. Out off all the causes of death one faces the risk of being attacked and killed by this animal are next to none.

I believe the state of Iowa should create laws to protect these animals. The killing of this beautiful and rare creature was an utter waste. I find it pathetic. When people view this mounted animal I hope they remember this.
