Cape Girardeau city leaders mull urban deer hunt
The increasing deer population in Cape Girardeau has city officials taking another look at an urban deer hunt.
The high amount is why city council member John Voss wants to revisit the idea of a highly restricted program allowing bow hunting of does during the regular deer season.
"I've asked city staff to help coordinate with the Department of Conservation to identify where we might have specific problems in the community and how we would go about establishing a program to help remove some of these deer at a very responsible, very calculated and a predicted way," said John Voss, city council member.
