Now this pisses me off!!

Air hunting in Alaska.
Wolves and coyotes are driven to exhaustion, then killed at close range.
These three smiling "men" murdered a wolf and expose his corpse as if they were heroes.
Humans, cruel their bloodlust by killing vital species, and call it " Conservation."
In reality they murdered a vital part of the ecosystem.

Which is more sport, shooting a wolf from a chopper or a guy facing 10-20 for a violent crime?

You want a challenge, come see me.

Fair chase
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to navigationJump to search
Fair chase is a term used by hunters to describe an ethical approach to hunting big game animals. North America's oldest wildlife conservation group, the Boone and Crockett Club, defines "fair chase" as requiring hunted big game animals to be wild and free-ranging.[1] "Wild" refers to an animal that is naturally bred and lives in nature. "Free-ranging" means an animal that is not confined by artificial barriers.

Fair chase has been the honor code of North American hunters for over a century and the principle underlying many of North American hunting laws, and is taught to new hunters in hunter certification courses.

Fair Chase is also a registered trademark of the Boone and Crockett Club.

Tough rugged men. Chest Thump.

They probably have thermal imaging to boot.

It’s tough being a 21 Century hunter.
Helicopters. Long range sites, guides.
It’s tough.

to sporting or cool either.

Some of these 'hunters' seem like descendants of those who long ago wantonly slaughtered buffalo herds for fun. [not for food].

I recall people on DU thinking that sunk McCain/Palin's chances with a lot of people!
