 | OMG, do you know what just happened? Not only is your project partner sneezing those loud sloppy wet sneezes without covering, but this morning he starts talking about all the wild animals he hunted and brought to a BBQ. Im not a PETA vigilante but come on! How absolutely vile. Get a better hobby. | |
|
| Wow. Un-pleasant. I feel sorry for the animals he has hunted and killed; they deserved to be passed through more honorable guts than his. | |

| Hunting is a highly offensive topic to brag about. Especially in these times. Declining habitat is a real problem. | |
|
| And, not all of us feel that way about killing innocents pointlessly. They have five armed guards on the last male white rhino at all times now
because of guys like him. | |

| Hunters say that they see the sport as a tradition that tests their skills and abilities. To a hunter, it isn't about the act of killing but rather survival and outwitting their prey. To be truly successful, a hunter studies its prey and learns its behaviors, habits and tracks. The hunter must also understand his equipment and know how to use it proficiently. | |
|
| Those who support sport hunting also emphasize the fact that they pay to participate in this pastime. Each year, hunters must purchase hunting licenses and even pay to hunt on the specific land they'd like to explore. Their money goes to the state for land and habitat conservation. Not only do hunters believe that their money is going to a good cause, but also that the act of hunting is in the name of conservation. By lowering the number of an overpopulated species, hunters take the strain off nature, which would slowly become depleted of food sources and shelter for the animals. Population control is said to ensure a quicker, less painful death than starvation or disease. | |
