If you don't like something then don't do it but <br />it is no concern of yours if other do surely?<br /><br />It takes balls to hunt big game and I suspect that many who object strongly have more than a little jealousy about those who are able to. Anyway, most animal lovers seem to be people haters. You won't stop me hunting or enjoying it either.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-627081175329856970.post-11584846412003397632015-10-18T10:06:16.172+01:002015-10-18T10:06:16.172+01:00The hypocrisy of all that emoting by the eco loons...The hypocrisy of all that emoting by the eco loons continues to astound me.<br /><br />If it were not for hunting there simply would be 'no' big game left now. There's a reason the most dangerous animal left in Britain is a slightly disgruntled sheep you know (and it wasn't rich big-game hunters or even AGW that did it). The only reason we have almost any wildlife left is because … of all those nasty rich landowners, going back to the Normans and before, keeping large estates/hunting parks – fact!<br /><br />The animals must be seen as a resource by those living there. Some significant reason why they should put up with their crops being destroyed and/or children eaten. Only the money from hunting does that. That and population control/culling is both necessary and drives the price up benefiting both the animals and the people.<br /><br />Care to check what happens (eg. California) when hunting is banned/restricted? Populations grow, massive damage occurs and animal populations die a long slow painful death (and in preventing even Native American hunting they allowed the destruction of significant areas of habitat, and many other non-hunted species).<br /><br />But eco-loonery is full of half-understood, good-intention, feel-good, unintended consequences. Remember the demand for recyclable packaging to 'save the environment'? Care to go to Madagascar where four-fifths of the forest has been cut down to grow sisal for … recyclable packaging? Or how about making biofuel to stop the 'big-oil' destruction? Care to check just how many 'millions' of hectares of irreplaceable rainforest has been cut down to grow sugar-cane for biofuel. Both instances (amongst the many) have destroyed more animal and plant life than any plastic bag, Styrofoam box, car/lorry or even … hunter.<br /><br />Then of course, the self-same loons whilst demanding protection for animals that wont eat 'their' crops' or eat 'their' children, wouldn't hesitate a second to call animal-control/the exterminator if a rat/fox/bear dared to encroach on 'their' home/environs.<br /><br />Hypocrites and idiots, like I said!Ablehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18109723804885979128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-627081175329856970.post-74151956149105949492015-10-18T06:23:58.137+01:002015-10-18T06:23:58.137+01:00"To kill purely for enjoyment or willy-waving...<i>"To kill purely for enjoyment or willy-waving speaks volumes about the perpetrator."</i><br /><br />It's a sport like any other.

Nobody is suggesting any such thing. The pointless slaughter of wildlife is condemned from every civilised quarter but it is very difficult to stop.<br /><br />It should be said, though, that the main offenders are not a small band of American or European hunters (pathetic scum that they are) but the Chinese, who are funding a veritable wildlife holocaust. Little is done about this because the Chinese are small and yellow-skinned (a 'sub-species' as Morrissey called them).<br /><br />But, hush now - we mustn't be racist, must we?Greencoatnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-627081175329856970.post-69867901595760606352015-10-16T15:46:51.534+01:002015-10-16T15:46:51.534+01:00If an animal is humanely (that EXCLUDES Halal, Kos...If an animal is humanely (that EXCLUDES Halal, Kosher etc.) killed for food, that is one thing.
