Show Notes

The annual deer harvest at Short Hills Provincial Park is a traditional Haudenosaunee practice that manages the overpopulation of deer, protects the ecosystem, and honors Indigenous cultural traditions and Treaty Rights. Since it began in 2023 it has faced both support and controversy. Field producer Jeyan Jeganathan explores how this harvest helps manage the park's deer population and preserves Indigenous customs.
