    Fox hunting is vile and dispicable act just as Bull fighting is all defended by tradition and way of life.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Fox hunting is understandable if you've got chickens and the foxes are killing your food (which they often do, can't really blame them) but if it's your family eating or the fox eating, then I'm sorry the fox is going.


    Bullfighting is atrocious, anytime an animal is tortured to death it's horrible. I've got a single shot rifle which I hunt with, I'm only shooting 1 time right through the vital organs and that is it. 1 shot, 1 kill no needless suffering...it's an emotionally difficult thing to do, but it's better than being so disconnected from your food supply that you know absolutely nothing of how the animal lived at all.


    If I had the opportunity I'd raise cattle and pigs, but I've not got the time, space, or resources to make that happen so trying to ween off of factory farm animals and get more game meat is the best I can do at the moment.


    @Freedom are you vegetarian or vegan? Just wondering.

    There are better ways to kill foxes than riding horses and being chased by dogs across fields in the name of tradition.

    I think that's exactly what Lyle was saying mate

    I'm sure I've told you this already but we had 6 chickens in the back garden. They were good layers but more pets really, just an added bonus that the eggs they produced were fucking amazing.

    Going back a few months 4 of them got killed by a fox. One of them taken, 3 of them just ripped to bits. I think if I'd have caught it in the act I would have kicked it to pieces or bludgeoned it to death with a shovel.

    I decide I'm going to get a gun, I'm killing the fucker. Then time passes, I heal a little bit, but the fox is still a prick, so I downgrade to my sons airsoft (BB) riffle. Wont kill it, but a head shot will liven the fucker up.

    Anyway. I'm patient. I wait night after night for some noise in the garden. Sure enough there the fucker is, just coming over the fence. I quickly grab the gun, the battery falls out but I maintain composure. I have one shot, right in the noggin, it yelps and fucks off back to where it came from double quick.

    I go to bed like I'm Andy McNabb or summat.
    When God said to the both of us "Which one of you wants to be Sugar Ray?" I guess I didnt raise my hand fast enough

    I felt like getting a gun to shoot my neighbor's big tomcat, because it killed my friendliest Dark-eyed Junco back in March.

    The bird knew me, when I went out to put seed down on my feeder it would watch me expectedly, and seconds later it would come to the feeder. The other birds like the Varied Thrushes and Starlings would nervously leave when I was nearby, but after awhile this Junco became used to me and understood I wasn't out to harm him so he would continue feeding when I was sitting on my patio.

    I was very very angry when I saw the well-fed cat carrying the poor little bird. The only other creatures besides humans that kill for the love of killing are house cats.

    RIP my little friend.

    A well fed fat cat would not normally kill a bird/mouse for food. They would play, train and torture it.

    Not sure if I 100% agree with that...scalewise I do because domesticated cats are amazingly good at killing but Chimps kill for no fucking reason, dogs will kill and then not know what to do with the carcass sometimes but that I think is more down to breeding it's like the dog knows it's SUPPOSED to do something and then it snaps out of it and is all "What the fuck do I do now?".


    Cats can be a pain in the ass, luckily all our cat has done is off a few garden snakes, tee tiny little things, but I quite like snakes even the small ones as they'll protect our garden from various critters.

    Wolves, mountain lions and bears have all been known to kill hundreds of sheep and not eat a bit of them. Especially wolves. And they are also big on eating things alive.

    @Memphis you have every right to protect your chickens but I don’t think it’s cool to purposefully maim an animal. Either let it be or put it down I don’t like to see anything suffer. I tagged along with some friends hunting in Maine they put a bullet in a deer and didn’t put it down it was me who had to track it all day to finish the poor thing off so it didn’t suffer a slow death

    Anyone who kills a lion should be shot.

    It was a plastic BB gun dude, basically a supercharged toy

    I took one in the face with no mask on, hurt like fuck, bit of a welt but no permanent damage. It scared the fox, little more.

    That's my boy, good shot bud! Next time though why don't you just try a bear trap?

    I believe in reincarnation and I believe animals have souls and when you eat an animal you could be eating your great-grandfather or your great-grandmother

    Yeah that type of "hunting" is gay, plus it's not a thing that occurs where I live because you wouldn't want your dogs hunting or otherwise needlessly exposed to rabies.


    I've got a pit bull now and I wouldn't sick him on anything other than a burglar
