Talking Deer
The Village Preservation Society of East Hampton will host an informational forum on deer control next Thursday at 5 p.m. at the Emergency Services Building on Cedar Street. Dr. Anthony DeNicola, president and co-founder of White Buffalo Inc., will be the forum’s guest speaker. White Buffalo, a nonprofit wildlife management and research organization, is dedicated to conserving native species and ecosystems through damage and population control, according to its Web site. Dr. DeNicola has experience in deer reproductive control projects nationwide, including a recent sterilization project in the Village of Cayuga Heights, N.Y.
The forum will offer information on doe sterilization and how a population-control program can be instituted in a municipality with firearm constraints, such as East Hampton Village.
