Deer Skin Tan

Deer Skin

North American Whitetail deer is only collected from the conservation effort to maintain a healthy and vibrant species. The hides and the meat are the byproduct of the hunting that is regulated by each state's conservation departments.  The amount of deer harvested is based on the population of a specific area where the ideal density of the species is determined to maintain the ecological priorities of the times. Based on that, the hunting tickets are issued for a specific amount of deer to be harvested.  North American whitetail deer has a limited number of natural predators in the USA which has a negative effect on other species and plants. This regulated sustainable-use system has been implemented to protect a balanced habitat.
