This topic really shows how “socially acceptable” poaching is.
The argument has been made for both sides. You have the morally right/wrong debate, fear of retaliation, a “no harm no foul” attitude, and letter of the law people. It’s difficult to say which path is truly the “right” one.

I will say one thing though, and not pointing to anyone specifically, but for as much as poachers are despised in the hunting community, that certainly doesn’t carryover to actually turning them in.
Well atleast if you know the poachers Rybo Then it becomes "not" cool to do what is right. We all know what the right thing to do is, but we seldom do so, and make a boat load of exuces to justify our actions.
Well said, both of you.
