Apparently done after following advice from consultants licensed through Natural England, WHO ELSE!
The very people that dish out shooting licences for fun.

Killing native species for the benefit of introduced species is just wrong
Sign it. Forward it

I have just seen that the RHS have been shooting deer at their new site in Worsley/Boothstown. Apparently they have done this behind people's backs. There is a petition on change.org.uk which people can sign to try and prevent any further murder of these beautiful animals. I'll be signing it and will not be visiting the site when it opens if this is the way they treat our wildlife
Hopefully if enough people sign it they might stop this disgusting practice. There is a link to the petition on Absolute Astley facebook site .
