JM, for some reason I couldnt reply on my last question. Oh well. The paper is about the process of creating the "ultimate huge buck" and the bad things what go on with these animals. Have any luck finding it? And anyone else that might have some info please jump in and feel free to help me out. Thanks guys

I haven't located it yet, but I'm still looking. A few ideas to think about though...
-Devalues the animals(only value is the antlers - nothing else matters). You can touch on the debate of whether or not using hormones etc. to produce bigger antlers is "humane."
-It can negatively impact the public's view on hunting(especially non-hunters).
-Increases the chances of diseases such as CWD in both captive and wild animals. Your entire paper could probably be about diseases...plenty of arguments on both sides.
-Promotes illegal transportation of deer(which ties in with CWD - animals aren't getting properly tested when illegally handled).
