All right. I get it. There is massive strategy here that my feeble intelligence is just beginning to understand.

There is an intelligent design with, presumably, many roles but which my weak intelligence can ascertain only a few roles.

One role is the master planner.

Another role is the rabble. The rabble is Microsoft Corbis Bill Gates al Qaida.

The other role is the reason the master planner has created the plan.

You see, those "Stargate Wraith" I have written about before as a term I defined are predictable.

If their food source is threatened then they will expose themselves.

Deer culling on massive scale backed by expert

Experts are urging all-out war on deer, which could see close to a million animals being shot each year in the UK.

Culling on a massive scale is necessary just to keep the exploding deer population at its current level, they say.

The call to arms was made after new research showed that only by killing 50% to 60% of deer can their numbers be kept under reasonable control.

This is slaughter on a far greater scale than the 20% to 30% culling rates recommended before.

With total deer numbers conservatively estimated at about 1.5 million, it could result in more than 750,000 animals being shot every year.

Deer are said to be having a devastating effect on woodland, damaging farmers' crops, causing road accidents and threatening a danger to public safety in urban areas.


Although deer numbers appeared stable, this was only because thousands of the animals were being pushed out into the surrounding countryside each year.

Culling 53% of the muntjac and 60% of the roe deer each year would only be enough to stop their populations growing, said Dolman. Reducing deer numbers would require even more killing. The same culling levels were likely to be required in other parts of the country.

"Deer populations are going through the roof," he said. "We're calling for a very large increase in the magnitude of deer culling."

Darting deer with contraceptives to stop them reproducing was not a practical solution, he argued. It did not resolve the immediate problem and meant venison might be tainted with potentially harmful drugs.

It was up to landowners such as the National Trust to organise the culling with support from the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs.

Culling would have to be carefully regulated and only carried out by trained stalkers. The result could be a welcome supply of fresh, healthy meat, said Dolman.

"We're talking about putting venison steaks on your family table or eating venison at gastropubs," he added. "If we shifted part of our diet to deer it wouldn't be a bad thing."

Allowing deer numbers to expand unchecked until their populations crashed would have "consequences a lot crueller than culling", he maintained.
