Default RE: Poaching is WRONG!!

POACHERS DISCUST ME!!! I agree that the money used to go out and kill an animal to feed a starving family could just as easily be used at the grocery store. Just a few weeks ago, here in NEVADA a 380" bull got poached. The guy had some 15 or so other animals in his house that were possible pocahing candidates. They are checking in to that. The guy was in a contest with some buddies to shoot the biggest animal. That just DISCUSTS me. I' m sure that if someone were truly shooting an animal to feed their family, however, it would be much more low key than someone who shoots the nice BUCK standing right next to that doe. The public would never hear about that doe that got shot, but the story of the guy shooting the buck would be on the front page of the news paper. And yes, POACHERS do give HUNTERS a bad name.
