just some info, btw i don't hunt.
"Studies have shown that approximately 4% of the deer die in transport, as many as 25% of translocated deer die within the first two months of trapping and translocation, and more than 85% of deer may not survive longer than one year.* These deer tend to have high mortality rates resulting from capture-related injuries, unfamiliarity with the release site and encounters with new mortality agents.
Many deer suffer from a type of trapping stress called capture myopathy. Capture myopathy is a degenerative disease of skeletal muscle associated with the increased muscular exertion and over stimulation of the nervous system as a result of the capture, restraint, and transportation of animals. Illness and death may result due to disruption of normal circulation, muscle tissue damage, and electrolyte imbalance. Affected animals may show muscle tremors or muscle rigidity, weakness, hyperthermia, respiratory difficulty, collapse, and death. Animals that do not die acutely may succumb later due to inadequate oxygen supply to the kidneys and from toxic products of muscle breakdown.
This technique has the potential to spread harmful diseases such as Chronic Wasting Disease and Tuberculosis from one deer population to another."
