I've lived in a log cabin for about 3.5 years now and I can't imagine not wanting to live in one ever again. I LOVE it!!! :)

You must not have lived anywhere near deer. They can easily jump a fence. And I can just see the complaints when you want to fence everything in (or out), lol!

Damn man, with your nick you should be Dildozer hunting next month.

Those that whine about hunters need to shut the fuck up. You dont see the whole picture, nor could you fathom an over populated country run amuck with these huge animals eating all the crops and causeing major damage to homes and property and taking lives. You fuckers need to hit a elk at 70 going down the highway..then maybe you will see that most hunters really save lives instead of just taking them.

save a homeless child..its a much better cause!

I don't care for hunting myself...

BUT...

As far as supermarkets go - most supermarkets stock 95% processed poison one way another. Genetically manipulated vegetables, inhumanely mass produced meat that is loaded down with hormones, antibiotics and who knows what else.

Do you really think eating garbage from supermarkets is better for you, animals, or the environment than sitting out in a cabin in the middle of the forest and living off the land?


And I'm pretty sure if they had the choice, your primitive ancestors would have selected a rifle over a sharp stick.

But then again, maybe your ancestors weren't that bright :glugglug

:1orglaugh

Seriously though, any realist, founded facts against hunting?

Except idiocies like "you don't need to hunt you just go to the market" or "Tofu is just as delicious"
What do you anti-hunting hippies have to say?

Wow! Nice kills!

Just as I thought, you dirty smelly hippies have nothing over hunters.

We are better than you.

Looks tasty, do you eat them Raw?
Where is that at, nice cabin.

Raw???
Fuck no. They're at the butcher getting chopped into delicious rib steaks and hamburger meat

Your a idiot, nothing more then a fungus growing off the decay of our planets evolution.

Thats really nice!

You get to enjoy this beautiful world and the Moose no longer don't.

What satisfaction does it give to one to end an animals life??

another one bites the dust

Holy shit! and you even had time to take a pic before you shot 'em?

WELL DONE!

My hubby would be so jealous. He went on his annual hunting trip over the weekend and got squat.

But the week before (he goes every sunday during hunting season) he managed to get a bear and a buck....no moose though....we haven't had moose in our freezer for 2 years now...sigh...

As for the hippy bashing....hey, I love animals (not that way you turd)....but know what? I'd MUCH rather eat game than any of that crap in the grocery store....all pumped up with steroids and anti-biotics and who knows what else.....

at least I know what deer, moose, bear etc have been eating....

Just a thought....

well the first two are great but as for the rest excuse me while i get sick

Can you eat the homeless? How do they taste?

:)

chaze and martyVIP, if you eat any meat and slam me, you're filthy hypocrites.

If you're vegetarians, that's your choice and i respect it, however it is the order of things.

If you're vegans, you're fucking nuts, get the fuck out of my thread.

If you're just offended some poor defenseless creature got killed, next time look into your plate. Chances are each time you eat meat another creature has died a much worst death.

Gigi, what you see there is a female moose. She was with her young.

We don't shoot females nor the young (though we're allowed to for the young). Just adult males.

We don't need to eat meat we do becuase society raised us to.

What animals ruled the world and could eat something other then us but stilled killed us one by one for the fun of it?

Animals have every feeling we do.

Have you never eaten a steak before?

Just in case this was over looked :winkwink:

Let me guess. You sat in a tree for a few hours with some kind of bait and waited for them to walk within rifle shot.

WOW. what a hunter.

Want to impress people with your hunting skills, take a bowie knife and give it a try.

And dont bait them. There is a reason they call it hunting.

you should make sure to wear bright colours, would be unfortunate if one of your buddies popped you in the ass when you are sneaking around in the bush....

Why is this argument still raging on?

I've never hunted. I don't understand the mentality of killing animals for sport, but there is nothing wrong with it, if the hunter is going to eat the meat and cause as little suffering as possible.

There is no humane way to kill animals. Every slab of beef or chicken you've ever eaten came from a slaugherhouse. That slab of beef or chicken lived a horrific life caged up. What difference does it make if a hunter shoots what he eats, and you don't but you get served a piece of beef from a cow that had it's throat slit open and dunked in boiling water while it was alive?

Easton, I gotta respond to your point. There is a difference between being horrified at video of a LIVE human having his head cut off and a DEAD moose having it's intestines removed.

1) One is human, the other is animal (there is a hierarchy of life whether we want to admit it or not. Humans are not the same as other animals in all respects)
2) One is alive having it's head severed, the other is a dead animal that no longer feels pain that's having it's guts removed because it is not edible
3) One is done for political reasons and shock value, the other is for "sport" and to eat the meat.

Anybody who eats meat cannot argue against responsible hunting. Hunting for sheer enjoyment and leaving dead animals all over the place is not right, but hunting to enjoy meat is fine. Have you ever gone fishing? Fishing is just another form of hunting. The fish doesn't enjoy being hooked, taken out of the water where it can't breathe, and then have it's head cut off for the BBQ.

Death is ugly, but eating meat is natural. Function equals form. If we weren't supposed to eat meat, our bodies wouldn't tolerate it the way herbivores are unable to digest meat. It's unfortunate that we must kill to eat meat. Responsible hunting goes beyond just killing the animal. It involves eating it. This is not the same as idiots who would kill animalsand leave the carcasses to rot.

With a bowie knife. Wow you're really not too bright are you? the point is to NOT make the animal suffer long. Not stab it, get trampled and then have it die 3 days ago because it's crippled.
Idiot, go back to Starbucks, wilderness isn't for you.

Chaze, of course i guess humans just began eating meat because we found it tasty back in the 60s while you hippies were too busy doing acid.

We're omnivores and quite frankly i'd rather not exclude meat from my diet, i'd lack vitamin B12 for one thing.

We do, it's the law around where I hunt

It's not just being raised to eat meat. There is a biological basis for eating meat. It's what seperates herbivores from omnivores from carnivores.

Meat provides what humans need to be healthy. It's the pre-eminent source of protein and all kinds of other wonderful things for the body.

Btw, I was raised in a family that opposed hunting. But for goodness sake, I never heard arguments that were sufficient for me to hold the same view. We ate meat. Beef, chicken, and fish. So what if Joe Blow wants to kill his own food, while we have the beef Company do it for us. The result is the same. A dead animal that had to die for us to eat its meat.

200 bulls....

ACtually, I went back and noticed it was a female after I posted...lol.

Beauty for sure.

Here in Canada you need to have a limited entry tag to shoot cows and adult bulls.....only immature bulls are open (3 points 1 side, 2 points 1 side maximum).

Those are two VERY nice bulls you've got there....

Where were you hunting????????????

Near Quebec City, about 40 km north. Here youngs and any bulls are allowed. We got those 2 young ones because this is what fate had in store for us.

moose baiting, lol!!! What do you use? "Heeeeeeeeeere mooooosey, here are some fresh willow branches"

It's illegal to bait any animal when you hunt in Canada.

Cool, I didn't realize the 'rules' weren't nation wide...

We're here in mid BC.....I see you guys hare having the same weather we are here.....nice, fair, no snow....wt hell is goin' on? haha

Gigi rules depend each year, mainly governed by moose population and it's place in the cycle.

And those two aren't THAT young....if I saw right, one is 2 and 2 and the other is 3 and 2.....nice age....

Of course your adult bulls also sport the rack of a lifetime...lol...but, it will happen when the time is right. ;)

I dont have a problem with what Dildozer was doing as he has said they aim to kill in the most efficient way possible & they consume the meat.

But I will say that I am very ignorant on the subject as a whole and am curious as to whether or not you consume bear meat when you kill them?

Eat meat fine and enjoy, but there is proof that we can survive without it. So why do we still kill animals because we are weak minded still like a drug addiction we cannot break?

Just enjoy the meat and don't bragg about killing a animal to people who know that animals don't need to die it's sounds really fucking disgusting.

If you want to hunt then do it, eat the meat, enjoy it, and move on. Or even chat with your hunting buds, but publicly posting it bullshit you know there are people that would hate it c'mon that's not too hard to figure out.

As far as game hunting being justified because you eat the meat, that's crap. A wild animal if anything should live more since it has a full life and family that you are taking away.

At least McDonald's meat is so doped up they don't know what happened to them.

It's not just me or hippies, shit I'm 28 too young for Woodstock. It's millions of people that can think outside of the box and realize that killing animals when we do not need to anymore is due to small thinking.

At least enjoy it and realize you do not need to kill these animals you do it because of the human way and the lack of fear from it, not because it's what's right.

And for the carnivore theory, this is learned from millions of years ago, now that we have a evolved brain we can fix the wrong path we started on as a race.

Someday it will happen, probably not for me since I still eat meat everyday, I was brought up that way :( But my children will not. I know it's wrong, it's obvious when you see a animal die and how it makes you feel. But worse then quiting heroin is stopping something that your parents taught you from birth everyday.


Hey it's all good, BBQ at my pad :thumbsup
