    Status update: unscientifically supported methods of animal population control continue to not work and continue to waste thousands of dollars of taxpayers money. The city of Ann Arbor, Michigan continues to display its stupidity.

    $200-400 per animal killed. Nice accounting work there. Someone should be asked to leave their job. We killed x number of deer at y cost equals z cost per animal.

    How much per trapped animal?

    If lethal means were not possible but trapping was, why not just kill off the trapped animal-instant population reduction.

    Oh snap! Someone is trying to prove the impossible using non lethal means.

    Actually trapping the deer is the most effective way to round them up, the deer are then shot in the head and hauled away.
