All three points are true, except for the bit about "exterminated to the last". Ideally the size of the deer population would reside more or less within the carrying capacity of the ecosystem but the eradication of the apex predators (wolves mainly) has led to an explosion in the population. This has knock on effects that are very destructive to the point that deer in most places might accurately be called "vermin". Those who disagree might consult an authority such as Aldo Leopold on the subject. He knew this a long time ago.
About the hunters: unfortunately there's a lot trash hunters out there now that don't follow norms and what formerly was considered socially aberrant behavior is considered cool, even righteous.
Noisy drones in the forest/desert/canyons wherever truly suck for everyone not the drone operator. Who knew the choppers that flourished in the skies above the Grand Canyon would proliferate to fill every former natural refuge from the clamoring industrial noises of modern life.
