    Well, we do this with hundreds of millions of pets and BILLIONS of livestock animals just to improve taste

    And hmm, might there be some sort of a difference in how practical it is to spay DOMESTICATED animals versus ONES IN THE WILD?

    “Surely there would be a practical way to tranquilize them and do a snip or something”

    You can’t be serious :D

    Tell me you’ve never been outside a city without telling me you’ve never been outside a city. You don’t seem to have any idea how big the outdoors is. It would be as easy to spay every deer as it would be to empty a lake of fish. Of every single fish. And then put them back alive. And then not understand that you still need to leave a breeding population, or you’re genociding said animal and removing it from the ecological niche it’s in, meaning the environment will be unbalanced and die. Congratulations, you’ve destroyed nature because you wish to pretend that predation isn’t something that is necessary.

    I’m not sure why you felt the need to be a condescending prick by the way.

    It’s not my fault that you have an inferiority complex. You can probably help that by actually informing yourself of things, so that doesn’t trigger so easily.___

      You wouldn’t need to sterilize more deer for population control than with hunting, obviously. You’d need to sterilize less in total because they’d still compete for food and habitat, just have no offspring. How is that unfeasible? I never said that you’d have to sterilize every single one lol, just enough to impact the fertility of their population in regions where its necessary due to human influence.

        So you’re sterilising deer for literally nothing, as a sterilised deer still has to eat, deary.

        “How is that unfeasible”

        Because the non-spayed deer will just procreate more. You’re not doing population control at all with your approach, even if it was possible. I ask you, do you think you can take a fishing pole and fish a lake empty? No, ofc not, that is ridiculous. What your proposing is equally if not more ridiculous. You’re thinking about nature as if it was a fenced area that you are in charge of. Very arrogant of you, tbh.

        You’re the type of person who gives veganism a bad name, imo. You’re probably one of those people who think “Thanos was right”, huh?
