"This limited archery deer hunt allows us to help manage the deer population on the property," said Bob Glotzhober, senior curator of natural history at the Ohio Historical Society. "Uncontrolled population growth in deer herds can result in the destruction of plants in their woodland habitat as well as destruction of cultivated gardens nearby. An uncontrolled deer population also can create unhealthy conditions for the deer and other animals, as well as greater risk to drivers."
