I don't consider canned hunts to be in the category "hunting". Canned hunts in my eyes is a branch of inhumane, cruel slaughter. The animals have to suffer for one’s pride, which is totally wrong, and does not really fit into the category of (ethical) hunting at all. I can’t believe people can stoop this low and torture an animal in such a fashion and get pride out of it- disgusting.
I do not believe in canned hunts at all and I will never do a canned hunt. I think that canned hunts should be banned worldwide. I am so glad my state, Wisconsin, has banned canned hunts!!
My father, our friends, and I do not hunt for the heads, we hunt for the meat.
Here is a post I made in Petlover’s anti-hunting thread back in December. That post in a way ties into this thread to back up the statements I have said:
I can't even imagine the horrible pain an animal has to go through in a canned hunt.There are three groups of hunters: ethical, unethical, and sport. Ethical hunters are the safe hunters who do not drink, do not shoot out of season, do not shoot over the limit, follow all laws and regulations, hunt for the meat, etc. Ethical hunters also practice for hours at a shooting range, insuring that the animal they harvest will be shot so it won't suffer and endure pain. Unethical hunters, are basically poachers in some ways, who drink before handling a firearm, are not safe out in the woods, do not follow laws, hunt over the limit, etc. Unethical hunters do not care where they hit their animal, and could care less about the slow death and pain the animal is going through. Sport hunters are the ones who go for the big trophy game- WHICH I DO NOT SUPPORT OR BELIEVE IN...may I add. There is a small percentage of sport hunters, and they really aren't true hunters in my eyes. The idea of killing animals confined in a pen, waiting for the supplement fed 30 point buck is not truly hunting. 95% of the hunters kill for the meat, not for the sport. If game farms could be outlawed, I am all for it- AND I AM A HUNTER!How sad!
