"Three for you... three for me"

You are hunting with a friend and are having a very successful day. You have killed 3 deer already and you are feeling lucky. Your friend has 2 deer. The maximum number set by law for deer hunting season is 4 carcasses per person. What would you do?

  Environmental laws  
  • Why has the deer population increased so dramatically?
  • Why do authorities set limits on deer hunting?
  • Would you continue hunting and hope that you are not caught exceeding the limit?
  • Would you take your 4 deer and call it a day?
  • Would you shoot the deer and leave them so that you are not caught with too many but still have fun hunting?
  • Would you do something else?
  • Who could you call to determine the hunting restrictions on deer or other game?
