Relocate to the Seattle area. Easy way to help feed the homeless.

They live in prime turkey & deer habitat and traditional range lands. 
Not that surprising that they are in / around town; being that cloae to wildlife is part of the appeal.  Seems like some silly complaints to me and I agree they should try additional deterrent method.   Otherwise allow limited specialty youth/disabled hunts or lastly trap & relocate onto surrounding public lands.
