Back in the '50s and '60s NYS had a 'Conservation Department' that put out 
a monthly magazine 'The Conservationist'. Every year before deer season 
they'd have an article that came down to 'Please, please, go out and shoot 
the damn deer. Get your lazy butts more than a 1/4 mile from the road and 
gun them down.'

It was a pretty good magazine but it lost a little credibility with 'Ain't 
no coyotes here, folks, nothing to see.'  That changed to 'maybe there are 
a few coydog hybrids' and finally 'Well, folks, we guess there were' when 
dead coyotes started showing up on their front stems.

Today it's the Department of Ecological Equity' or some such. Good bet 
Hochul doesn't want rednecks shooting Bambi.
