Hudson Valley, NY –

A total of eighty five deer are expected to be killed after another state-approved cull tonight in Poughkeepsie, as Vassar College continues an effort to eliminate most of the deer it says are damaging its farm preserve. But protesters will be there, too, and they say the college is conducting a slaughter. Hudson Valley bureau chief Susan Barnett reports.
