Historically, hunters have been a big part of the environmental movement, while you cant say the same for their involvement in the animal rights movement. |
I decided that if I weren't willing to kill any animals myself, then I wouldn't eat their meat either. |
I really get disturbed when I listen to them talk, when I read what they write. The excitement they feel is something like a serial killer's who has found a socially-acceptable outlet for his pathology. |
I remember not wanting to be rude, but I would aim to miss. |
Those caribou hunters spent a lot of money on travel, equipment and licensing fees, a figure disproportionate to the value of the meat they gained for sustenance. I see a distinction here from indigenous peoples hunting for survival. |
We can't escape what we do as a product of culture. We are a cultural being; we can't hunt as a bear or a mountain lion does. The need is no longer present. |
