Duno but I blame the parents.

There are people, even people on this board, who say that they hunt because it's a tradition where they live and they enjoy it.

Killing something for fun is a completely alien concept to me. I will never understand what goes through a person's mind when they decide to go out and shoot an animal. It's beyond my comprehension - but as long as there are parents teaching their kids that it's okay to hunt, how to stalk an animal and the best place to shoot it; there will always be folk shooting magnificent animals for a laugh.

ok so the puppy song was funny, in a twisted way, and i couldn't even kill the rat, let alone a puppy.

infact i feel guilty hoovering up spiders :blink:
or any insect for that matter.

and i totally agree with maker about people hunting for the fun of it, as it doesn't make a person seem that mentally stable if you get what i mean :wacko:

maybe it's just the Native American blood in me, or somethin....
but I just don't understand the concept of hunting for "sport" :blink:

would be funny to see one of those bastards miss one of those cats....
and get mauled to death

:devil:

Agreed.

It doesn't fit the definition of sport for me either, it would be like watching a boxing match where one of the pugalists has a big fucking stick. Unfair advantage.

Dad: Coming to hunt for a fox, son?
Son: Sure, lemme get my daps on.
Dad: Well, I've bought you some jodphurs, a black suede helmet, a red dinner jacket and a white frilly shirt to wear.
Son: :ermm:
Dad: Also we have to be quick because coming with us are 150 dogs, 25 horses and 23 other upper class idiots.
Son: What, why?
Dad: Look son, foxes are quick - we might not catch it otherwise. We need them to help us.
Son :unsure:
Dad: Don't look at me like that. Killing foxes rawks.
Son: Sure, Dad. You have fun - ya hear. I've got uhh ... homework.

They all look so smug....but I cannot see the excitement of killing something from a long distance...I mean, surely a true hunter should get up close and personal, look the hunted in the eye....

I don't agree with hunting for fun, but long distance hunting seems to have even less justification. I guess its just to allow these cowards to have their picture taken with the animal...once its nice and safely dead of course.

So killing animals for fun is much more palatable provided the huntsman was able to see the fear in the animal's eye without the aid of some kind of magnification device.

That makes no sense at all, the animal is still dead because someone wanted to enjoy themselves.

ofcourse this leads to the discrepancy with fishing
and in that case the slaughtering of cows, sheep, chickens etc etc all living foods we buy in supermarkets - but these ofcourse died for a "function"

I dont really have a problem with fishing but then again maybe because they are smaller and less rare and taste great...
on the other - if these were pictures of them standing proudly over cows, sheep, chickens which are ment for the supermarket /butcher shops - i would accept it better since then the animals had died in a more "natural way" in ze wild (farmers field)...

I used to go fishing a lot when a teenager. Still would go sea-fishing if we were having a barbeque, I think. I see no ethical debate about killing 'cos you're hungry. People have to eat.

While I don't eat most meat (I eat fishies), I have no problem with other people doing so. We farm animals to provide food for our society, this is a good thing.


Hunting for fun is a different matter entirely. Those guys above didn't have a hippopotamus sandwich :dry:

we farm animals :blink: :lol:

ofcourse the reasoning behind killing "safari" animals is that they need to be killed in order to keep the ratio correct to avoid "overpopulation" in the game parks - same fkdup logic applies to whale killing in japan and um....norway :dry: - although the whale killing is for the meat & oil......."animals to provide food for our society, this is a good thing."............ :shifty:

:lol:

I can see how that sentence might not work :D

Safari park culls are regulated and tbh, I don't know much about them so don't mind leaving it to the conservationists who do. It doesn't look like the people above are involved in conservation tho' - more trophy hunting. A bow and arrow isn't exactly the best way to humanely kill a hippo :mellow:

I'm alright with killing non-endangered whales for food and stuff, if that's what they do. Tho' from what I've read, Japan are a bit over-zealous in their pursuit of whaling.

I don't see the big deal.

I don't see the point in doing it, but then I also eat cow, chicken, pig etc.

Which would you choose, living in your natural habitat and being killed by a predator. Or born and raised in a cage, to ultimately be killed for food. You be dead whatever the motivation of the killer.

At least the animals there got to live prior to being killed. Which does not justify killing them, but there are many more examples of cruelty to domestic animals, which most of us ignore as it gives us a steady stream of inexpensive food.
