Life is like a fire hydrant- sometimes you help people put out their fires, but most of the time you just get peed on by every dog in the neighborhood.
Taking pictures of hunts and the game taken is a way of honoring the hunt and the animal. They have been doing this for thousands of years in almost every culture ( cave drawings ). Also saving of heads and skulls, it does honor the animal that is why I take pictures.
I am curious that on gardening sites they post pictures of the vegetables, do people feel sorry for the carrot that was killed and eaten? After all are not plants living things also.
Funny I do talk to the hogs and steers I butcher. I scratch their heads and look them over all the time. When I butcher hogs next would you like to see photos? I thought of taking some for the "do you butcher your own meat thread" .I wonder if they'd spent a day with the animal they killed, if it nuzzled them affectionately or ate out of their hand, tickling as it did it, they'd still want to kill the animal. Even if they did -- say for food -- surely they wouldn't take photos of it and smugly post them online.
Yes I am proud of the fact I kill and butcher my own meat.
I respect any animal I kill more than any anti-hunter that is for sure. As the animal knows that hunting and killing is natural and does not try and go against nature.They lack respect for animals despite what they've said in this thread.![]()

I hunt deer, and I have ultimate respect for them. I hunt them for meat because it is natural. Humans are part of nature and part of the food chain. I guarantee you deer have a more humane death from a hunter than they do when they're hit by a car, or slowly starve to death when they get old.
Where I live, you cannot drive down the road this time of year without seeing multiple deer carcasses on the side of the road that have been hit by cars. If deer hunting were banned for even one year, the population would be so out of control that you literally would not be able to drive at night.
As far as wildlife conservation goes, hunters in the U.S. contribute over $700 million every year to wildlife conservation. Hunters and fishermen also fund over 75% of the annual income for all 50 state conservation agencies.

Without hunting animals would starve, in some areas(here) people would starve, yes we have starvation here in the U.S.. Not only that would you rather prefer them to go on a government program ?
I never said most anti-hunters are sociopaths, I said most sociopaths are anti-hunters.nice try
Are they proven sociopaths or is this just your IMHO?I'll tell you how most hunters I've met are sociopathic, IMHO at least. I'll give some gruesome accounts, and I only hunted from ages 15 to 20.
I have hunted from the age of 6 and have met no sociopaths in 38 years. I can give you some very gruesome accounts committed by non-hunters if you like.
What you call cruelty I call natural and this natural act is a Germanic tradition. My first name is very Germanic and is related to hunting and war or I guess that would be cruel also.But I'm sure you're aware of your community's cruelty, and will continue to reach and romanticise it as Germanic tradition lol.
So yes I plan to continue hunting and encourage other to hunt.![]()

If that were so, hunters wouldn’t so quickly side with the cattle ranchers that take habitat from wildlife. I mean, look at the hunter comments in this thread. “Kill the foxes cause they steal chickens. "Kill the wolves because they take cattle from the ranchers.” It’s just more excuses to kill. A sickness.
Hunters would fill up their fridges until they let meat rot, they’d give meat away to black folk to preserve "Germanic tradition." lol.
If nobody wants the poor dead beasts, like Ed Gein, they’d hide the bodies.
Well I really don't hunt coyotes. I do however shoot them with a rifle if they are around the pasture. I always have rifle handy for that purpose. Sorry to disapoint you but I am mostly a bird hunter that kills less than 10% of the birds my dogs point. In fact I even help create habitat for birds on land where hunting is restricted.
