Default RE: Help me. . . Why do people hunt?

Model722: I suspected that is what you meant, and it sounds like we are on the same page in regard to trophy hunting. I also think hunting released, penned animals is wrong and should be banned.

However, everywhere that I am aware of, If you shoot an animal and waste the meat, you are breaking the law. So the people you are speaking of are indeed breaking the law.

Also, I have a friend that goes to Africa, something which I don't care to do. He shot 6 animals the last time he went. Every scrap of meat was used by the local villagers who could use it much more that he could and he pumped lots of dollars into their economy. It is actually illegal to bring any of the meat back into this county due to disease transmission. While going there is not my cup of tea, I don't condem him for it.

Good hunting
