Yes, I hunt and fish....and I don't do it for "the joy of killing" I can assure you.....and when I am fishing it's mostly catch and release, if I ever keep what I catch it's because we're having a fish fry
I love the way people think it's fine to kill animals as long as it's not the killing aspect that they enjoy.

Last time I checked they don't take into account whether or not a murderer enjoyed killing his victims or not into account when delivering sentances.

If you hunt animals and kill them on some level you are enjoying it, else why do it?

I don't see any difference to a man who likes to watch two animals fight becuase it stimulates his adrenaline and produces an excited feeling in his body to someone who wants to eat an animals flesh and enjoy the sensation of the animals fats and juices running down their throats.

Animals died just the same in either case, and ultimately for the same reason, because some human wanted some pleasure or satisfaction that necessitated the death of the animal.
