You must be a vegetarian?

Methinks you are offended by the hunter being
a woman?

Those who eat meat appreciate seeing a woman
hunt since the time can come, has come, when
the deer in the freezer has made a huge difference
in the monthly budget. The meat is also better
than most you can find that is farm-raised.

As a woman, I do not prefer to hunt, but know
how to. I appreciate the hunters in my family
who bring home the meat we eat and serve others.
I am also glad, as a woman, that a man took the
time to show me how a deer is killed and gutted.

A hunter knows that if you chase a deer you have
shot, they will run for miles. If you just leave
them alone, then follow the blood trail, they will
be found close by. While this seems cruel, it is
not as cruel as the method of killing used in
meat processing farms---that of shocking the
animal and/or bludgeoning it to death.

How about complaining about the government shooting
animals from helicopters to thin herds. That meat
is not even used. Better to sell licenses to kill,
or use lotteries to thin herds. Then the public
can use the meat. Herd and animal management is an
important issue, but not one that dictates that
killing animals should be stopped, but to see if
the balance of animals and humans is being met.
Its a plus if the animal is also used for meat
or other goods.

Unless you are a strict vegan, your stance on this
issue is hypocritical. It is NOT a taboo for a hunter
to honor an age old tradition of providing food. I
liked watching Michelle, and I also love watching
"Swamp People", where men and women shoot hundreds of
alligators that are used for food, shoes, and purses,
oh my :p

"Hogs Gone Wild" is a good example, also, about
feral animals encroaching and how HUNTERS are on
the front line of helping manage and thin the
herds.
