David, Lisa

BC Green

Fort Langley-Aldergrove

1. Public Input On Issue Necessary: AGREE
Comment: I agree public education is one of the first steps towards the proper treatment of wildlife. Educating people so that they understand their animal neighbours is of paramount importance so that people do not fear our animal neighbours and know how to act as to not provoke action. With a positive attitude the people of BC could treat our animals as the valuable and iconic species which attract tourists to our home. The Green Party of BC intends to improve the regulation and raise habitat preservation standards to counter our environmental impacts. One instance of this is the creation of a BC Species at Risk legislation that will include habitat protection, these new land-use designations will be created to provide wild species with sufficient ranges and migration routes.

2. Deer Number Counts Are Essential: STRONGLY AGREE
Comment: Very few actions should be undertaken without some sort of watchdog present or a thorough study conducted regarding the repercussions. The Green Party of BC believes that all wild animals deserve fair and ethical treatment by human beings. We oppose publicly funded control measures such as the 1980s BC wolf kill or the 1990s seal cull, and I believe that the deer cull could be contained within that category. Furthermore the Green Party of BC intends to appoint an independent Commissioner of the environment and sustainability who will ensure compliance with environmental legislation as well as the proper treatment of wildlife.

3. Knowledgeable On Capt/Euth Method: AGREE
Comment: The use of traps to capture ungulates throughout history has typically been for good reasons for food and other materials where shooting and killing the animal would have been inappropriate. Now these traps are used to capture these deer alive where they will then be shipped off to another region, ideally, or simply disposed of using a captive bolt gun. Bolt guns are used to "stun" animals before slaughter and the usage of the guns typically results in the destruction of parts of the brain of the ungulate. This typically results in the death of the animal with the intension of keeping the rest of the materials intact. The decision to utilize this tool to euthanize the captured deer is a questionable decision especially when there are non-violent alternatives. The Green Party of BC opposes industrial agricultural practices, such as the use of bolt guns, as well the creation of inhumane conditions for animals and as such the culling of the deer would need to be proven that it was not considered cruelty to animals.

4. Non-lethal Be Chosen Over Lethal: STRONGLY AGREE
Comment: The Green Party of BC absolutely agrees that non-lethal options for deer management should be implemented first to preserve our unique eco-system. We intend to increase funding for the conservation officer service in order to provide more training in non-lethal tactics, as well as increasing funding for the animal protection functions of human societies. The BC Greens believe that in a compassionate society all wild species should have the inherent right to exist in at least one geographical location without human interference. The relocation of "problem" animals should be the decision made over any sort cull which forces us to question our own morality. Thank you again for your questions, I hope that I have been able to clarify the position of the Green Party of BC on the preservation of the deer population of BC in light of the recent culls.

Your Political Party

Vancouver-False Creek

1. Public Input On Issue Necessary: STRONGLY AGREE
Comment: This is the only way to make the encounters between humans and wildlife positive and not negative.

2. Deer Number Counts Are Essential: AGREE
Comment: It is important to study this information province wide, but management processes may differ from region to region based on localized populations.

3. Knowledgeable On Capt/Euth Method: AGREE
Comment: I am somewhat knowledgeable about this process. I have done a bit of additional research after receiving your e-mail.

4. Non-lethal Be Chosen Over Lethal: STRONGLY AGREE
Comment: I believe that culling should be the last option, however, I do believe that it may be necessary at times since deer populations fluctuate and increase due to human impacts on the environment including the removal of deer's predators and the increase in suitable vegetation for food and habitat created by road and rail corridors and grass provided by human settlement.

Comment: I believe we should keep a relatively complete inventory of all wildlife in BC. An inventory would allow us to better predict changes, and the causal effects of changes, on wildlife due to environmental, predatory, migratory and human-wildlife conflict conditions.

3. Knowledgeable On Capt/Euth Method: NEUTRAL
Comment: This question doesn't really fit the rating system. I do know of clover traps and bolt guns, but I am certainly no expert. However, I prefer relocation before euthanization.

4. Non-lethal Be Chosen Over Lethal: AGREE
Comment: This is an extension of the previous question. In order to relocate we must use non-lethal traps. However, there is one small modification to that universal policy...and that is where public safety is concerned. Not contrived safety issues to save money, but true endangering of human lives.

Comment: Wildlife does not belong in communities. Wildlife belongs in the wild.

2. Deer Number Counts Are Essential: DISAGREE
Comment: I don't know about the rest of the province but I've just spent the last three weeks working on film sets around south Vancouver Island and there are deer everywhere.

3. Knowledgeable On Capt/Euth Method: STRONGLY DISAGREES
Comment: Never heard of clover traps. I am opposed to trapping deer to euthanize them, instead I support a monitored hunting program to control deer populations with the goal of stocking food banks with venison.

4. Non-lethal Be Chosen Over Lethal: DISAGREE
Comment: My understanding is the deer population is exploding on the islands in particular because of the lack of predators. If left unchecked the eventual outcome will be starvation.

Comment: Obviously, it is humans, who are displacing wildlife from natural roaming grounds and destroying the hunting grounds of natural predators. In essence, it is we who upset the balance. With a 'positive attitude towards wildlife', however, I do not mean, that it is OK for deer to destroy farm and garden crops or for bears to snatch small pets from people's back yards. Since animals cannot negotiate on the same level as humans, it is up to us to learn their needs and find respectful ways of integrating ourselves into their natural habitats. It is amazing, how much co-operation humans can get from wildlife, when they learn to perform this balancing act.

2. Deer Number Counts Are Essential: STRONGLY AGREE
Comment: In simple terms, if you do not know what the precise picture of a situation is, then you cannot start managing it. Wildlife travels. It is not limited to our regional boundaries. In some areas we may have a healthier population of natural predators than in others. There are varying climatic and geographical conditions to be considered and how wildlife adapts to changes. In all, it is a more delicate process than creating a management plan based on statistics behind the walls of a board room. Local communities can play an essential role in developing of management strategies, as they are most closely affected by this issue.

3. Knowledgeable On Capt/Euth Method: STRONGLY AGREE
Comment: I was not sure, how to number this question. I know about these practices. Management must not be done via culling. Deer can be captured relatively safely and moved, if absolutely necessary. If we can stun and tag wildlife for observation, then we can do the same for moving it to more adequate and safer areas, if necessary. There are a number of capturing methods ranging from box and clover traps to drop nets and dart guns. Studies have also been performed on the viability of any of these methods. All have their drawbacks, and no choices can be made without careful deliberation. In fact, observation is an essential tool in establishing an adequate management 'plan'. All alternative methods must be found and explored. In European countries the management of wildlife has been practiced successfully for Centuries. Well trained and experienced forest wardens, rangers and hunters are an invaluable asset to such operations.

4. Non-lethal Be Chosen Over Lethal: AGREE
Comment: I agree in all instances, except for 'hazing'. I find this method psychologically damaging and bordering on some forms of torture. There are enough deterring and protection methods available, and with adequate public education the problem can be managed. However, in some communities, which are most affected by deer damage, the option of fencing, which can be very effective along with planting deer gardens the animals can access freely, can be extremely costly, and there would need to be some sort of assistance provided for such communities to go along with the education.

3. Knowledgeable On Capt/Euth Method: STRONGLY DISAGREES
Comment: This is an unclear question (actually two). I am not knowledgeable about the specific kind of traps you mention. I think I know what you mean by 'captive bolt guns'. Either way I am for non-lethal, non-damaging methods where practical.

4. Non-lethal Be Chosen Over Lethal: STRONGLY AGREE
Comment: Where possible, non-lethal, non-damaging methods are better for wildlife management, though as you say yourself, they have to work. Humans need protection too.

2. Deer Number Counts Are Essential: STRONGLY AGREE
Comment: My father was a deer hunter and we lived off the meat he gathered. I am a vegetarian (fish ok) now but he always taught me the aboriginal values of conservation. Hunting, like fishing and logging, must be properly regulated to ensure it remains a renewable resource. Studies are required to ensure the independent verification of fact to ensure proper annual limits.

2. Deer Number Counts Are Essential: AGREE
Comment: The Green Party of BC believes that all wild animals deserve fair and ethical treatment by human beings. We oppose publicly funded control measures such as the 1980s BC wolf kill or the 1990s seal cull, and I believe that the deer cull could be contained within that category. Furthermore the Green Party of BC intends to appoint an independent Commissioner of the environment and sustainability who will ensure compliance with environmental legislation as well as the proper treatment of wildlife.

Comment: I am not knowledgeable about these traps and cannot comment on them.

4. Non-lethal Be Chosen Over Lethal: NA
Comment: The Green Party of BC absolutely agrees that non-lethal options for deer management should be implemented first to preserve our unique eco-system. We intend to increase funding for the conservation officer service in order to provide more training in non-lethal tactics, as well as increasing funding for the animal protection functions of humane societies. The BC Greens believe that in a compassionate society all wild species should have the inherent right to exist in at least one geographical location without human interference. The relocation of "problem" animals should be the decision made over any sort of cull which forces us to question our own morality.
