Different Attitude to Hunting

I'm with you on this. SD members on here that believe every animal must die right there. They never wound a single animal. Every animal dies with its tongue in, on a rock and never bleeds. They head shoot every animal but its eyes don't pop out. They don't need a tracking dog because they never lost a deer. They definately dont show any hunts on social media because it gives the antis ammunition but spend hours on youtube looking for African lion and buffalo charges and then give their expert commentary what the PH should have done.

They believe owning a rifle and shooting game is a privilege to be carried out by semi professional cullers in secret at night using thermal gear and then claim there are too many antis. How on earth does the average person relate to that let alone other hunters let alone anti hunters?

you don't speak for me and I doubt many others and most if not all of your post I find quite inaccurate.
you seem to have a lot of knowledge [or so you think ] about what goes on in my backyard. and yet your thousands of miles away.
I for one would not want you on any shoot of mine, based on what I see in your videos, and judging by the lack of comments maybe I'm not alone in that.

If your post was to "get a bite" well congrats,, you got one.

What’s not to agree with mate ,all seems seasonable to me .
 
A couple of years ago a zoo in Denmark had one of its large animals die, Can't remember what animal. The zoo decide to do a autopsy and they invited along school children to watch. There were the usual suspects complaining but the autopsy went ahead and by what i read the children enjoyed it. I think they did the same thing on a second animal with the children invited again.

It's quite common here. The big fuss was over Marius the giraffe that the zoo killed. It was a two year old male giraffe that was surplus to world breeding programmes so it was shot, dissected in front of the zoo crowds and then fed to the lions afterwards. Every school holiday there are autopsies / dissections at the natural history museum here in Aarhus for the children to go and see.
 
I once eat Gaur steak from a young male surplus to requirements when a dinner guest of the head vet to Copenhagen Zoo. Very tasty for a Red List animal which would have normally been fed to the big cats. ;)
 
I thought it was a giraffe but was not quite sure. When my children were small often their friends looked on while i skinned deer. They never seemed too traumatized.
Last year a friend of my youngest son said he remembered coming round to watch me skin deer. Its a good education for Children to see the real side of life.

Children are always fascinated, not traumatised. It's only once they become indoctrinated by exposure to what many ignorant adults consider to be "acceptable" in today's society that it all goes pear shaped. Usually around puberty, which is an age of mental upheaval during which they're easily influenced. However, the rise of social media has hastened and exacerbated the effect.
My kids have been around me killing and cutting up our own animals (even "pet" ones such as bottlefed lambs) since they were born, helping out as soon as old enough. Now they're pretty well grown up, and more level-headed and well adjusted group of young people you would struggle to find.
