Could be Bruce. I have mixed emotions about them leaving the area. On one hand I am happy that they are not taking any deer, but on the other hand, I have a feeling that they are helping to keep the deer herd in check. But I do hate the thought of them killing deer. It's probably a bad way to die.
I am the only one who seriously hunts the property. There's no way I can keep them in check, especially since I don't like to take the does. None of the land around the property is hunted, so if we get a bad winter, I can envision some problems. Starvation is a bad death. I have seen large scale starvation once, I don't want to see it again.
