Deer hunters in Pennsylvania will shoot about 300,000 deer during the two-week hunting season that began on November 29. Some of their haul will be given to Hunters Sharing the Harvest, a program run by the state’s agriculture department. And about 100,000 pounds will donate to help meet the surging demand from the state’s food banks, which redistribute the venison to more than 4,000 local food-assistance organizations that help people unable to feed themselves because of the economic downturn.
