The view that the shooting of deer with arrows constituted cruelty was expressed in a letter from Mr. AV. B. Duff, of Balelutha, which was received at a meeting of the Otago Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals recently. The writer enclosed a newspaper cutting describing the activities of a group of deer cullers at Amberley, who killed the deer by means of bows and arrows. Mr. Duff emphatically denounced this as cruelty, stating that in some eases it took four or five arrows to kill a deer. The letter was referred to the Christchurch society for consideration.
