The Deer of McCall
What has changed that the deer have to be “taken care of” now?
-John Fawcett
We urge the McCall city council to listen to their constituency. City Council, do your due diligence before you make a final decision.
At the last city council meeting on June 24, with a cutoff for comment time at 3:00 p.m., more than 350 voted against the proposal of trapping and transport and approximately 18 were either neutral or for the proposal.
Please contact our city council members and our local fish and game to voice your opinions BEFORE
July 8, 3:00 p.m.

Innocence tempered with strength.
We are part of the earth and it is part of us. The perfumes flowers are our sisters; the deer ,the horse the great eagle; these are our brothers. All things are connected like the blood that unites one's family

We do not rule the natural world, despite our conspicuous position in it. On the contrary, it is our lifeline, and we do well to try to understand its rules.
