Parks Canada and a coalition of First Nations are currently planning to round up and kill the entire fallow deer population of Sidney Island, BC—upwards of 500 deer—because the animals are not native to the island.

The plan is to have dogs herd the deer into large net pens and then have marksmen shoot to kill. Helicopters may also be used to hunt down any deer that manage to evade the pens.

You can help prevent this act of cruelty and urge Parks Canada to find a better solution.
