Poll on hunting a continent
What do you guys think? I don't think that I could ever hunt a continent such as Australia. After all the animals can't get away! I realize that Australia is big, but what about the animals near the edge. They don't have free range. This is not fair chase to me.
I guess when you think about it, there area really no areas on earth that really have no boundaries of some sort (water, desert, cities, mountains, open fields,etc). There are always some boundaries somewhere, so I guess there are really no fair chase hunts. There are NATURAL barriers everywhere! Darn!!!
So if we build a high fence along the Mexico border and one along the Canadian border, the whole US will be "high fenced", so lots of guys won't feel right about hunting anywhere here.
If size really doesn't matter, then what I have said is true, right? Or maybe, just maybe, is it really just the idea of a high fence that some can't get passed. I can understand that! You have a right to yell: "I HATE HIGH FENCES!!!" You HATE any ARTIFICIAL barrier. But I can't really see how you can really believe that size doesn't matter and it isn't free range/fair chase no matter how many acres.
No matter how big??? Come on, be honest: you just detest, hate, despise, ...... high fences in any shape or form, and you have a right to your opinion, but every one of you knows that if you were hunting on a 100,000 acre high fenced ranch for truely wild animals, it wouldn't be any easier than if the fence wasn't there.
