4Falls Report post Posted November 12, 2014 So can I purchase some eastern whitetails from a game ranch and turn them out on my lease and then conduct hunts? There has to be some sort of legal issue here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Explorer Report post Posted November 13, 2014 They don't want deer and elk/stag that are farm raised escaping and polluting the gene pool and spreading disease. I was under the impression that buffalo needed to be contained in an area with a fence strong enough to hold them. They are not considered ferrel though. Only goats and pigs fall under that classification. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
