Prey animals like deer can become overabundant in an area when most of their natural predators \u2013 wolves, bears, etc. \u2013 have moved away or died off due chiefly to human expansion.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">With the excess number of deer comes fewer food and habitat sources for other animals, which must compete against larger forces for the same amount of resources.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Suppressing the deer population aims to keep the ecosystem in balance.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Hunting is also a tool used to limit the spread of diseases carried by animals that could affect other animals in the food chain. Deer are susceptible to chronic wasting disease (CWD), causing fatal brain damage.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">There is <a style=\"font-weight: bold;\" class=\"\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cdc.gov\/chronic-wasting\/about\/index.html#:~:text=No%20CWD%20infections%20in%20people,a%20theoretical%20risk%20to%20people.\">no confirmed evidence<\/a>\u00a0that CWD can spread to humans. But it is related to other prion diseases that have had the potential to infect people, raising concerns about possible risks, even though the evidence for human infection with CWD is not conclusive.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Dr Morrone noted that hunters, of whom there are thousands in the state, should have to fulfill a physical fitness requirement to obtain their Michigan hunting license.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Hunting typically involves setting out in the cold early hours to trails near wooded areas, searching for hoofprints or scrapes on the ground where bucks have marked their territory.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">The hunter must then find a perch, likely in the shade under tree cover, and wait in chilly stillness for hours on end until a target appears, their blood vessels constricting to preserve heat.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">When a buck or doe does appear, the hunter feels a surge of adrenaline and takes the shot, causing the heart rate and blood pressure to spike.<\/p>\n<div class=\"artSplitter mol-img-group\" style=\"\">\n<div class=\"mol-img\">\n<div class=\"image-wrap\"> <img decoding=\"async\" id=\"i-fd2576d1da84669c\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2024\/11\/27\/16\/92551717-14132711-Three_hunters_in_Michigan_aged_57_65_and_83_have_been_found_dead-a-5_1732726505783.jpg\" height=\"492\" width=\"634\" alt=\"Three hunters in Michigan, aged 57, 65, and 83, have been found dead on nature trails just days apart from fatal heart attacks since the start of the state's deer hunting season less than two weeks ago\" class=\"blkBorder img-share\" style=\"max-width:100%\" loading=\"lazy\" \/> <\/div>\n<p> <noscript> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"i-fd2576d1da84669c\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2024\/11\/27\/16\/92551717-14132711-Three_hunters_in_Michigan_aged_57_65_and_83_have_been_found_dead-a-5_1732726505783.jpg\" height=\"492\" width=\"634\" alt=\"Three hunters in Michigan, aged 57, 65, and 83, have been found dead on nature trails just days apart from fatal heart attacks since the start of the state's deer hunting season less than two weeks ago\" class=\"blkBorder img-share\" \/> <\/noscript> <\/div>\n<p class=\"imageCaption\">Three hunters in Michigan, aged 57, 65, and 83, have been found dead on nature trails just days apart from fatal heart attacks since the start of the state&#8217;s deer hunting season less than two weeks ago<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Dr Bradley Serwer, a Cincinatti-based cardiologist, told <a style=\"font-weight: bold;\" class=\"\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/health\/hunters-suffer-fatal-heart-attacks-dragging-heavy-deer-state-department-reports\">Fox<\/a>: \u2018Once a hunter hits the deer, they have to track the deer, often for a long distance over rugged terrain.\u2019<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Trudging across difficult terrain in the cold also demands more oxygen than the body would need at rest, and the body has to work harder to maintain its core temperature, increasing the risk that the heart is not getting the oxygen it needs to function.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Dr Serwer added: \u2018When the deer is found, it must be transported back to a vehicle. This typically involves dragging a 100-to 200-pound animal over varied terrain.\u2019<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">The combined stress on the heart can disturb the regular rhythm at which the heart beats, controlled by electrical pulses.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">When those pulses are disturbed, the heart can beat too fast, too slow, or in an irregular pattern, known as an arrhythmia.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">The rise in blood pressure and oxygen demand can also cause fatty deposits in the arteries to rupture, leading to clots in the coronary arteries, resulting in a heart attack.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Dr Eric Lavonas, an emergency medicine physician at Denver Health and American Heart Association volunteer, <a style=\"font-weight: bold;\" class=\"\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/newsroom.heart.org\/news\/a-hunting-we-will-go-just-be-mindful-of-heart-health-risks#:~:text=%E2%80%9CHeart%20attacks%20and%20strokes%20can,touch%20with%20your%20hunting%20party.\">said<\/a>: \u2018Every year \u2014 and as we\u2019ve already seen in headlines just this recently \u2014 some hunters experience heart attacks or strokes while in the woods.<\/p>\n<p><iframe data-xpmodule-iframe-resizable=\"\" scrolling=\"no\" name=\"xp-iframe-m407cwyd7lg6orqlodv\" class=\"iframe-creator \" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/i\/html_modules\/2024\/09_SEP\/240905-healthsubheading\/index.html\" allow=\"clipboard-write\" height=\"10\" style=\"border: 0; width: 0; min-width: 100%; \" id=\"xp-iframe-m407cwyd7lg6orqlodv\"><\/p>\n<p>Your browser does not support iframes.<\/p>\n<p>    <\/iframe><\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">\u2018Heart attacks and strokes can happen even to people who seem in good physical shape.
