Natural Meat Product Harvest

I am choosing to try and eat minimal farmed animal products, while attempting to harvest animals of overpopulation for food. Deer, turkey, squirrels, and other animals of abundance and sustained populations will be harvested. Only with proper licensing and harvesting techniques will this be done. Fish also apply to this, while not using a boat to do so, and keeping my excess fishing line out of the water and disposing of it properly.
