Kill to Save?

[sotx]

Capitalism has done more to save endangered species than any bleeding heart ever has.

Henry has not even posted since starting this thread. I bet he is just sitting around laughing.

Add to that, SPCA, PITA, Humane Society, etc. up on their high horse about the killing of animals while they are doing the very same thing to dogs and cats and other animals all over America. HYPOCRITES indeed!

Shhh..........most (even hunters)don't know that the mass majority of the cats/dogs are put-down by these organizations that claim sooo much humanity!

Man, we're sunk if hunters don't even understand how wildlife conservation works. How will we ever expect to education the non-hunters if our own ranks don't know that basics? Forget about changing the minds of the emotional anti-hunters. Rational thought won't help them anyway. But surely we can educate ourselves and the rational-thinking non-hunters of the world.

I hope.

I PRAY............it is really sad that hunters really don't truly know the depths of what it takes to be a conservationist. Great article in the P&Y magazine/journal this month exactly about this issue and subject as it relates to so-called "hunter conservationists"! Shocking what FACTS are really coming out about a large % of our hunting brethren! SCI - First For Hunters..........nuff said!

I'm with the "Put your money where your mouth is crowd".
All anyone has to do is buy the hunt, go dart the rhino and take it home with you to live out it's golden years in your yard

If you don't agree with the killing of some to save the others then you must not agree with hunting in the United States in general. We have used this method in the states for decades in order to increase the health and numbers of deer, elk and other species. Why do you think the state does surveys of the game populations and issues or limits the number of animals that can or must be taken? We kill so others may live.

Now pass the salt.

Are you serious???

[Shurshot]

There are economic forces that provide for endangered species to continue to perpetuate while being subjected to hunting. For instance Oryx and Pere David.... both non-existent in their native lands, but have sustainable populations here because its profitable to raise them for hunting purposes.

Boom!

[Shurshot]

Kinda like ducks unlimited?? Except the ducks are not endangered.

Gotta give it to the guy - as a Ten Point, you know he's been around here long enough to understand exactly the reaction he was going to get. Obviously didn't care. Good on him. I don't care what your opinion is on something - you have a right to it in this country.
