doesn't the Phila zoo need deer? or, they could be transported to the Pocanos for decent hunters...and for the wolves that will probably be re-introduced.... also did everyone get the notice about some place that uses contraceptives, presumably in the salt lick or in special tasty food put out? more humane Vivianne

Okay, I'm at home now, and can make a short report. I phoned around: The West Philly police ((215) 686-3180) confirmed it; they said the Game Warden's authority supersedes theirs in this matter. The PA Game Warden's office (610-926-3136) claimed no knowledge, but they'll get back to me, and they also suggested I call the FDA's Agriculture division which handles this (717-236-9451), and they "could neither confirm nor deny."

I figure we need two questions answered: 1) why is this being done, and b) are all the deer to be killed, or just a few to thin the herd?

Got this done by noon. No word from anyone I left messages with. But I did get out there tonight with my video camera, and I'll get that onyo Youtube soon. I counted eight deer there tonight.

Okay, the video of the deer is on Google Video. Nothing special, just eight deer wandering around in front of the main building.

Did anyone find out for certain what's happening? We've _speculated_ that it's thinning the herd, but has anyone _determined_ that to be the reason?
