Big Game Hunter

I despise canned hunts! To me, that is not hunting when the farm you're hunting on tells you which animal you can shoot. The thrill for her was putting a bead on the animal and just pulling the trigger. Wonder what portion of these magnificent animals she took home for her trophy. (Trump's son cut off the elephants tail.)

If you hunt and kill it, you should consume it. I'd like to see this girl walk all day in the woods and look for an animal to hunt. That's work.
 
I'm with Gemma, canned hunts should be outlawed! :mad: Even trophy hunting should be banned IMO, I'm not against regular hunters who hunt for sport and use their kill for food.
 

I despise canned hunting too...I read that somewhere in Africa they are breeding lions just for this..some rich dude pays enough money to kill an animal just so he can hang the head on his wall and brag about it.....the lowest of the low.
 
Yeeeehawwww Dadeeee, What kin we kill now???? Most of you know how I feel about guns in general. Also how I feel about critters in general. There is a special place in Hell for recreational hunters. There's an even hotter place for parents who put a gun in a child's hands. Must be a cracker thing, a twelve year old photographed holding a weapon around here and social services would be right on it.
 
I'd like to see an UNarmed hunter go one-on-one with a lion ! Now THAT'S sport.

Absolutely, I would consider that a fair fight:eek:nthego:

I feel the same, fur....I know a lot of hunters, none of them need to hunt to put food on the table....I see many of them teaching junior to kill by the time they are 10 years old, around here they even put pictures of a child with a rifle and a dead deer in the local paper so daddy can brag about the 'kill' their kid made down while drinking coffee at the DQ.
 
Be it popular here on 'SF' or not I've hunted most all of my life and I have no intentions of stopping till I get so old and weak that I can no longer shoulder a gun.......ever since I can remember I've looked forward to the yearly fall hunting seasons for deer, turkey, ducks, geese, rabbits, squirrels, quail, pheasants etc.

I do not hunt for the sake of killing "I Consume Every Animal I Hunt and I Only Hunt for Those Animals That Are In My Opinion Consumable".......I do not believe in hunting for non consumable animals in the U.S. such as bobcat, coyotes, mountain lion etc. as some do.

As far as African / trophy hunting goes, I'll repeat myself........"I consume every animal I hunt and I only hunt for those animals that are in my opinion consumable" so therefore African hunting does not appeal to me.
 
I mean I can kind of wrap my head around what you're saying Ike. Then again I could give up meat eating rather easily, I know a lot of people wouldn't. But gofigya...I often joke I could flip the switch easily for capitol punishment. But having a weapon and intentionally killing a creature because I want to eat it? No, I just couldn't do that. That deer or rabbit or whatever didn't cause me any harm. I couldn't just kill something like it was an ant on the counter. Guess it's just a different mindset.
 
Why do I think that this needs to be taken with a lot of grains of salt?

Gourdin maintained that the hunting farm they visited offered the giraffe to for them to hunt because it was a problem animal. "They actually had an older giraffe that was eating up valuable resources other giraffes need to survive," he said.
He also said that the meat from the animals they killed was donated to a local village and will help feed 800 orphans over the next month.

How many orphans in the local village? ...

I've done some shooting Ike, I've never killed anything myself, but wouldn't hesitate if I needed the food. We're not hunters, but many years ago when we were out for a long tent camping trip with some friends in the Yukon we were out in the wilderness and were running low on food. My husband did bag a grouse, that he cleaned and I cooked it for us.

Many folks are just like you and look forward to their yearly hunting trip and make good use of any deer, elk or other animal they shoot. I've had friends, family and neighbors who were/are good people and responsible hunters. Usually when we go camping in September, there are bow and black powder hunters in the back woods.
 
Well balanced couple here, no issues at all. Wouldn't want to be them or anywhere near them.

Those disgusting so-called big game hunters make me sick. What kind of monsters would kill those beautiful innocent animals for sport? Shame on them!
 
Grrrrr....there is no reason to hunt animals unless needed for food. I go on 'photographic' safaris...to shoot them with a camera not a gun!
 
OMG!!!!!!!! I cannot believe you folks. Yes canned hunting is wrong, but
normal sport hunting is a normal and necessary pastime. I am just guessing that all of you are either urban or suburban residents. Yes I resemble your remarks. In our IGNORANT REDNECKACY I was given an Ithaca single shot .22 lever action. on my tenth birthday. I learned firearm handling and safety using that gun. I passed that on to my son and now my grandson has that Ithaca. My GGson will have it on his tenth birthday providing he shows the proper maturity.

My family has been successfully putting food on the table, slaughtering live stock, putting down wounded animals, killing varmints, and yes shooting native Americans ,British Soldiers and probably a few other assorted people on the North American continent since the year 1634!

I am proud of my families heritage and our efforts towards self sufficiency including the hunting and harvesting of wild game

Really? I think we would be overrun with them here if the neighbors didn't keep them under control. They are wiping out the rabbit population. They are even showing up in town now.

Imo, it depends on the numbers of the species. Big game hunting of endangered animals is disgusting. Deer, not so much. Better than watching them starve due to overpopulation.
