Grocery Stores are running out of food especially meat.

The Hunters freezer may soon run out of last years bounty.

This schit may last all summer, so when will it be OK with the fire to start filling our freezers with out of season game?

I don’t think anybody is going to fault anyone for feeding their family. We are in the worst part of this scenario. What do we have left, like 11 days?

Sea lions and feral horses are delicious.

Is taking a protected non-game animal still considered poaching?

The food that was plentiful in all the stores is in homes now. Instead of poaching, stealing from the public, how about targeting those who cleaned out the stores. I would much rather see targeting of the hoarders over stealing of public game. Plus, how many deer are going to get killed by people without a clue of how to process it so the majority of the deer will be wasted.

Next step is hoarding of the public game. I have deer and turkey on my property every day. Should I kill as many as I can fit in my freezer now before someone else get them? This is the hoarder's mentality; a bunch of selfish Aholes.

I've had multiple venison steaks & loins standing in my driveway the past two mornings on my way out.
This is about the time of year they seem to get over their 'fly or die' auto response.
They're so unaware...

Probably start with the Collard Doves - not protected and plentiful.

I've never considered someone feeding their family thru hunting out of season as a poacher.

For a segment of the 'fire, I feel that it not only always has been acceptable, but lauded.

Ant and the Grasshopper scenario.

Circumstances beyond your control are at least arguable. I get it...don't like it...but I get it.

Didn't have any plan at all and spent every last dime on toys? That's on you. I still get it, but God help me, less forgiving.

Still plenty of food available.



Because your favorite brew pub closed down does not mean its time to panic.

I don't really care if someone wants to harvest wild game to feed their family. Have at it. Below I've outlined a few other alternatives that are more food for less effort than hunting.

Think just a little bit. Sysco and the like have WAREHOUSES full of food that's not going to restaurants. The local Grainger branch here in town has TP in stock because it's out of what most consider the normal supply chain.

Before you go poaching deer @ 15-30# worth of meat each, maybe hop on the cattleman/stockman Assoc. website for your AO, then call a few and see who's got a giant old bull or dry old cow (turkeys, chickens, pigs, etc) in need of introduction to a grinder. Get a couple of neighbors together and get it paid for and processed. If you've got deer in the yard I guess you're not expending much in terms of effort or resources to harvest them. If one lives in town and is thinking of driving out and hunting, then buying an animal from a producer is going to get you a LOT more for a LOT less.

No need to go full-on hunter/gatherer society here folks.

The food supply chain is in no danger of running out for awhile. The CEO of Cub Foods was on a radio station yesterday saying that after this initial onslaught of hoarding, the shelves will fill back up and things should level out. It was panic buying at it's finest.

Local radio guy was in Costco yesterday and said the meat coolers are filling back up pretty fast.
