They are culled because the damage they do to the property, fences and for eating precious feed that the cows need. The carcases are gone withing days usually so they don't litter the property. I may shoot 1 to 3 a night and go about twice a month. It's a big property so there's not hundreds of dead animals lying around. This happens on almost ever single farm around the world. Maybe not a solar or wind farm.

Sometimes it's hard for people to understand the concept and the way it happens. For example, last night we didn't see ONE carcass lying around and I was only there the week earlier and shot 4. Not one remained.

My mate eats the venison. He hasn't bought meat for consumption for 20 years. He shoots his own or gets it from people like me. He's a farmer too and has a property even bigger than the one I shoot on. It's against the law to take the kangaroo meat and so that stays, but the deer...Well, it gets eaten. (Not by me though, I hardly est much meat at all.)
