Did you here the one about the cop and a rabbit who walk into a bar?

There are laws about having wild animals such as deer because of the high incidence of CWD in Northern Illinois and Southern WI. This fawn should have not been brought to a facility across state lines! And unfortunately, the only way to test for CWD is post-mortem.
Officials had also asked for voluntary cooperation with the warrant from the owner and staff, the owner and staff refused to cooperate.
County officials (of all levels) and the public have numerous run-ins with these people.
You're right, this deer should have been spared and the owners of the facility cuffed and thrown in jail for their mistreatment of animals!!! But there would be an uproar about that too.
And outside of posting your silly links... what else are you doing to make a difference?
It's not about an inability to "handle it," its about an inability to have a constructive discussion about it. Of course excessive force is an issue and one that should be dealt with, but by simply posting link after link from sources of varying credibility ( you've even posted editorials as sources), it becomes a fair assumption that you're not really interested in tackling the problem, but instead just bitching about it.
We've got enough arm chair activists in the world.

It's not that we can't handle it, it just gets old. It's like your gravity's failing and negativity don't pull any of us though.
We all have our passions. Some rail against cops, some promote environmentalism, some just like tequila. I'm super interested in environment and climate change (and love a good margarita) but if I posted about environment every week people would tune me out (I know, I've done that in the past- now I try to spread it out more).
Just a thought, unsung.

Copied from the comments:
"I wonder if they mean a canada goose, or did the goose actually show the officers his passport?"
"They probably knew he was Canadian because of how polite he was."
Very sad story, but I got a laugh out of those comments
If this was an above-board wildlife rescue operation, they would have known that they CAN NOT keep native wildlife without the proper license. This also applies to the Canada goose. It is federal law that governs the possession of native birds.
but cant find the link..i hope someone can find it and post it..

The DNR got a tip on the new location a few weeks later and the baby deer was executed.
Maybe the DNR should start taking over the war on drugs instead of baby deer.
