Is it possible to cull free ranging whitetails to get a specific trait or to decrease a specific trait? Personally I don't think so, simply because the same traits are carried by bucks and does alike.
It may be probable to do that to high fenced herd.
Herd reduction? I never looked at that as "culling" but I guess it is a type of culling.

From the article.
Culling is best prescribed when there are too many deer for the habitat, otherwise there is no need to remove anything. It takes a long time to skew the genetic composition of a free-ranging deer herd and, depending on the size of the property, may not be possible.
