Reply #25: There is subsistence hunting in my state [View All]

[Warpy]

and this is a poor state and that elk or deer in the freezer is a necessary source of protein for a lot of families. If they don't bag anything, it's beans and chicken and squirrel and maybe they'll get lucky and someone will share some goat with them come spring.

However, that's different from the rich out of state trophy hunters who come to take heads and leave the bodies behind. It's also different from the Cheney type "hunters" who shoot tame animals in enclosures.

Subsistence hunters here are great environmentalists. Trophy hunters are generally scum who don't live here, so what the hell.
