no. not in any way. in fact i have a small cabin that sits on roughly 120 acres that i lease out to an archery club during hunting season when i'm not at home. roughly i net ten large per year just off the seasonal lease!

some big mammals like whales, dolphins, lions, bears, tigers, elephant, ect. i could never bring myself to touch. not even lay a finger on. the creatures are just that majestic, i do not eat the meat and have no use for them other than display. therefore i leave them alone.

=====================

a buddy of mine who lives in sacramento has a seaplane that he uses to hop to his home in tahoe and back on the weekends. he is a licensed pilot (albeit this statement alone is pretty ****ing scary!). british columbia would be quite the haul, but i might see if he at some point could pick the mount up if i could work a deal. of course, if this is even possible, it's going to take some serious planning and i'm in absolutely no rush.
