So what if hunting (used as a broad term in this instance) was Kill optional? From all the responses, I would say hunting is indeed kill optional (as used in broad terms). Would you still kill? Most have said yesor would you be more content with outsmarting the animal... (I havent thought of how to make it kill optional yet) then simply returning it to its natural state?The answer is yes to this question as well.As Brett implied, he is fishing to kill, but not every fish he hooks is killed-despite being in his net.
I guess that's the beauty of hunting. You are in control of your own destiny, and you do not have to pull your prey from the water to see what you have hooked!
