And don't forget that some years ago the Woodland Trust were
co-signatories of a letter to Ross Finnie MSP calling for a
significant culling of deer in Scotland - even on ground they didn't
own.

In which they joined many other responsible individuals and
organisations who have realised the ecological damage being done by the
too high numbers of deer in Scotland - regardless of who owns the land.

Which shows that they support the killing of tens, if not hundreds, of
thousands of deer in Scotland.

Indeed, a very sensible and responsible attitude given the destruction
caused by too high densities of deer.

People; don't join the Woodland Trust to have them campaigning with
others for the killing of thousands of deer.

A typical Angus sweeping statement.

Well, do they?

The Woodland Trust certainly don't include this in their
environmentally damaging unsolicited persuasion propaganda.


Perhaps the same "people" have read the latest statistics which say that
74,000 road traffic accidents are caused by deer annually.

No. They are caused by motorists.

All truth passes through three stages:
First, it is ridiculed;
Second, it is violently opposed; and
Third, it is accepted as self-evident.
