I will now place my answer to the question of my thread.
High Fence hunting is done to take an animal for many reasons. (as the posts tend to go)
Like many things in life, we all have differing opinions, likes and dislikes. Yet, to fence in the wildlife so that they can be hunted is kind of taking the definition of hunting away.
When you go,... if you go, on a high fence hunt, by all means enjoy yourself. If it is your definition of hunting, so be it. It is not mine. The freedom of the wild is what hunting is all about. Animals can and have been tamed. Some, not so much as others. Our ancestors never dreamed of fencing in the "wild" animals. Most, if not all, livestock at one time roamed freely. for "produce" purposes though, they were more or less domesticated to fields and lots. So, in closing, please be aware of what you are doing and be a good example.

Let me try and enlighten some of you as to how some feel ....
When it comes to the term, "restraint", there are many different kinds .... there is
Physical - fence, cuffs, rope, etc.
Mental - fear
ENVIRONMENTAL - this would be baiting, money, etc
Medical - drugs
All these constitute restraining in some way or another ...............
Like it or not...
BTW, I am not "against" either ...
