The bad thing about the formerly domestic hogs is they are usually really really big.
Hunters will lose dogs hunting boar, that is just a fact of life regardless of if you put safety vests on your dogs too. Those hogs gore and bite and they are mean as fuck.
You live in a wild place. :)
So did we but then we killed most of them :-\;D

Guys you're going to have me turning this thread into a discussion on BBQ . My area makes THE BEST pork barbeque in the east it's whole hog and for Lexington style it's shoulders, but the KEYS are the sauces!
Barbecue Sauce Recipe: North Carolina Vinegar Sauce :: The Meatwave
That's the Eastern style sauce....but the Lexington style adds molasses and ketchup. You should give it a try Andre, you could make a killing running a BBQ joint down under!

I don't take it personally against my compatriots; you have to admire their balls and skill for getting in there (boxing fans would relate to that), even though that stuff shouldn't be allowed at all.
I wouldn't consider them cocksuckers either. It's just a game deeply rooted in our South that you have to get rid of by educating people.

Re: What do you think of sport hunting?
Population control is also a reason to hunt. Coyotes are becoming a bigger issue in the Southeast and sometimes there are so many you have to cull a few to save other animal populations.

Yeah that's a big issue, but there are luckily some very good rescue programs for racing dogs.
I don't even much care for the circus these days either and their use of otherwise wild animals.

You don't hate Donald Trump because his son is a trophy hunter. Be honest, you hate him because he's a strong white man.
One should not judge a man by the actions of his relatives. Donald Trump isn't a sport hunter.

Trophy hunting benefits local economies in Africa, funds conservation efforts (including defending endangered animals from poachers) and the meat is almost always donated to the local villages

Re: What do you think of sport hunting?
Without rhyme or reason there's no justification for killing anything, people who try to justify their actions are sick freaks. Just admit you get a buzz/power trip from killing the weak and defenseless.
A little off topic but - what I hate most about halal is the excuse it is the most ethical/humane way to slaughter the animal. The very fact they try to justify the action by bullshitting it's in the animals best interest shows how sick it really is, decent minded people knowing they are doing wrong.

The case for killing A tiger singular
India Hunts Man-Eating Tiger Blamed for 13 Deaths
https://www.nytimes.com/2018/09/08/w...iger-hunt.html
PANDHARKAWADA, India — The first victim was an older woman, discovered facedown in a cotton field with huge claw marks dug into her back. The next was an older male farmer, his left leg completely torn off.
The killings have gone on for more than two years, sowing panic in the hills around Pandharkawada, a town in central India. In mid-August, the mauled body of Vaghuji Kanadhari Raut, a threadbare cattle herder, was found near a rural highway. He was victim No. 12.
The case for killing a few monkeys
Man, 72, 'stoned to death by monkeys' in India
https://news.sky.com/story/man-72-st...india-11531791
A man in India has died after a group of monkeys threw bricks at him from a tree.
Dharampal Singh, 72, had been collecting pieces of dry wood before the incident in Tikri, Uttar Pradesh, on Thursday.
Police said monkeys rained bricks on the man from a treetop after collecting them from a nearby dilapidated building, the Times of India reported.
The elderly man later died in hospital from sustained head and chest injuries.
Villagers have repeatedly complained about aggressive monkeys in the area, but the animals are a protected species.

I'd be interested to see how many people hunt WITHOUT rhyme or reason...I don't disagree with you on it.
Personally I would love to get to the point where I no longer have to get my meat from the store. I'd love to never have a single penny of my money ever reach a factory farm ever again....that's why I've gotten into hunting.

If properly managed... and tangible benefits well communicated... trophy hunting could actually be a good thing. Right now the biggest danger these animals face is slaughter by poisoning, which kills far more animals than trophy hunting. Setting aside clearly delineated territories specifically for trophy hunting, with all the necessary and proper fees and permits attached (and limits), might even help prevent killing of these animals by other, illegal, inhumane means. The end result everyone wants is the same.... to preserve the wildlife we've got for future generations to enjoy. However we get there, it should be ok.

Re: What do you think of sport hunting?
Now I'm not likely to visit Scotland to hunt for anything other than Scotch, but wild animals TYPICALLY don't just let you saunter on over to them whether you're petting them or hunting them.
Big horn sheep are hunted out west in the US and that's OK. I'm not sure what these animals in Scotland are like.
Hunting CAN be fun you're out in nature, you are away from everything, just you and the wilderness.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J2N0Utg7KYE
Now MY own personal goal in regards to hunting is to be able to never buy from a factory farm ever again. I want good, healthy, happy meat. Now not everyone kills for meat, I personally think that's a waste, that meat should go to use even if you just donate it.

Re: What do you think of sport hunting?
An American TV host who sparked anger after shooting a wild goat on Islay has criticised "ignorant people" who sent her death threats on social media.
Larysa Switlyk, who presents the Larysa Unleashed programme, posted pictures of herself posing with the dead goat on a hunting trip to the Scottish island.
The hunt was legal - but sparked outrage on social media.
The thousands of replies sent to Ms Switlyk included some calling for her to be killed.
Ms Switlyk is understood to have been in Scotland a month ago, but only posted the pictures of the dead goat on Tuesday.
Previous posts showed her posing next to a dead sheep on Islay, and a dead stag that was shot in Ardnamurchan.
In an Instagram and Twitter post on Thursday, she remained unrepentant despite the anger over her hunt - which led the Scottish government to say it was examining whether the law needs to be changed.
Ms Switlyk posted a picture of a seaplane alongside a caption saying she was heading off on her "next hunting adventure".
She said: "My ride has arrived - I'm headed out on a bush plane for my next hunting adventure and will be out of service for 2 weeks.
"Nothing better than disconnecting from this social media-driven world and connecting back with nature.
"Hopefully that will give enough time for all the ignorant people out there sending me death threats to get educated on hunting and conservation. FYI, I was in Scotland over a month ago..."
Several tourism companies offer the chance to stalk and shoot wild goats in Islay, Dumfries and Galloway and other parts of the UK.
The animals, which have no natural predator, are classed as an invasive, non-native species in the UK, and hunting them on private land is not illegal.
There are thought to be more than 3,000 of the animals living in herds across the UK.
Controversial culls have been carried out in some areas to reduce their numbers, while contraceptive darts have also been used to stop the animals reproducing.
In the tweet which sparked the furore, the presenter - who is described on her website as a hardcore huntress - wrote: "Beautiful wild goat here on the Island of Islay in Scotland. Such a fun hunt!! They live on the edge of the cliffs of the island and know how to hide well.
"Made a perfect 200 yard shot and dropped him (Good thing too because he could have ran off the cliff into the water)."
The Scottish government's Brexit secretary, Mike Russell, told BBC Scotland on Wednesday that the posts were "horrific", and called for the hunting of goats on Islay to be stopped immediately.
Mr Russell. the MSP for the island, also insisted Ms Switlyk's goat hunting was worse than the hunting of red deer, which he said was "very firmly regulated" and "you don't see people glorifying in it very often."
About 30,000 deer are shot every year on public land on Scotland - the vast majority by wildlife rangers and contractors and about 3,500 by "recreational stalkers" - with many more being shot on private estates.

It ain't my bag either to hunt for nothing.....I want clean, healthy food to put on the table, and I want the populations of the animals I hunt to remain at healthy levels and healthy sizes.
That said, I'm not going to pretend hunting isn't fun. It's work and it's difficult depending on what you're hunting and where but it's a good feeling. Humans have that urge to hunt in them innately, we've had it for far longer than we haven't, but hunting scratches an itch that many probably don't even know they have. I've dealt with anxiety before, too much nervous energy, bouts of depression here and there, but getting away from all the technology (lol, suuuuure guy with all these posts) but YES getting away from all that and getting into nature gave me the opposite feel, and hunting even more so and it's not about killing out of malice or hate or frustration or anger, it's about the focus, about the feeling you've provided food for your family, and at the end of the day you're thankful for that deer or turkey or dove or whatever, you're full of appreciation for what life is and what nature is and you want MORE nature....not just to hunt, but to observe, to live in, to take a breath, to hike through it's wonderful.
But hell that's just me and what I get from it.
