Who Owns Iowa’s Deer?

December 20, 2007

There seems to be a bit of confusion along with hypocrisy when it comes to making a determination as to who owns and has what rights on the deer population.

Kevin Kelly, the Tipton Christmas tree farmer who was recently found guilty of illegally killing a deer that was eating his trees, says what many other Iowa residents say that they’re not sure who owns the deer but they sure know who collects all the money associated with deer - the Department of Natural Resources.

If you think I’m kidding, check out this article in the DesMoines Register and see how much of it makes sense.
