Natural selection is not some holy process to be put up on a pedestal. In fact, it cannot be avoided. The strongest, the best suited are always going to survive while the weaker and more poorly suited will not. Man is a predator who introduces a new evolutionary pressure. This requires of the deer that they be more intelligent, faster and that they not stand in one spot for too long. The deer who behave in this manner are the ones who get shot. The deer who do not survive.

I don't claim it as a truth, only a personal belief. If there is an overpopulation problem near me, I'll be the on feeding them sammiches through the winter.
