I’m interested in hearing what Lemmings think about hunting. I started hunting deer years ago because I wanted to be a part of the process, like if I couldn’t handle killing and gutting an animal I shouldn’t be eating meat. IMO, it’s much more humane than what factory farmed animals endure. Less suffering overall than most natural deaths. Overpopulation causes disease and starvation and we killed off their predators, so we kind of owe it to nature to fill the ecological gap.
Also, I fucking love it. I watch the sun rise, think, record birds I’ve seen, think, watch squirrels play, think a bit more, and sometimes, I get some food.
Idk. I’m not looking for approval or trying to change your mind, just wondering what people think.
It’s stupid. It’s one of man’s demonstrations of power-tripping over another thing.
“Luuk, I gu out at the ass-crack o’the mornin’ and I shoot something down, I feel prowd!”
A lot of the time, it is simply about just going out and killing something short of joining the military because we can’t just go around killing whoever and whatever we don’t like without being penalized for it.
Nothing but just fulfilling that small dick complex, is what it is.
I don’t hunt. I have, but I do not enjoy it, and have no interest in it.
You clearly have no experience with hunting at all, and have no idea what you’re talking about.
Then you don not understand hunting at all. Unfortunately, many hunters don’t either.
