I got about half right........The women in hunting is good, and the overall population that supports hunting is great,......
But, what REALLY bothers me is that 43 % of the kids have the
" Bambi " syndrome and believe animals fall in love.

The should come with me on a late winter bow hunt and watch a sweet loving momma deer kick the crap out of her fawn for that last bit of available browse.........

Sorry, but I guess I fail to see the humor of a family unit starving to death, with only the strongest surviving, even tho that's the way it is........

My whole point is, nature is beautiful but also savage and unforgiving.
Savage to the point a doe will eat the browse herself, and the fawn could die.
There is no compassion.
A male grizzley will kill and eat the cubs he comes across just to put the female in heat again to pass along his genes.

Way to often people try to associate human feelings with wild animals, they are sadly mistaken.

Sorry Airoh, got a little of track here.
