What are your views on hunting?

We are part of nature. Hunting helps feed us. It's our 'natural' right to food. It's healthy for us to have meat, as we are omnivores (the human race, though there are vegetarians). If we, as predators, do not keep the other species under control, then they will breed to fast, have too many, they'll eat all the comida one year, and the next, there won't be enough comida for all of them, and a good portion will starve. It's much mais humane of us to just kill them, for food, then let them starve themselves, am I right?

Hunting for fun is just sadistic. That is horrible. But I don't think that's what this pergunta is addressing.

OK, well i live in the most mid west place in the US and there a shit ton of deer here...and my mom is scared shitless to drive during deer season..so im ok with hunting deer...there is a lot of deer and im pretty sure a lot of people here would be okay with it..and happy (excuse my language =])

It's terrible! Killing other animais for your own enjoyment is awful!! The overpopulation of animais is nowhere near as bad as the overpopulation of humans! And if you're doing it for survival, you can eat the trees too, they're healthy for you, and the animal stays alive!

if its for food, i guess im ok with it. but i HATE when its just for "fun". ok, so im gonna chase you around your house with a chainsaw. that will be "fun". dont ya think?

i guess i'm fine with it. As long as its legal. But i wouldn't see myself doing it

I think it's stupid in this age. It was originally nesecary for our survival, but it really isn't today. We have learned that we can live without meat and still get enough protein in other sources to be healthy. In some other poorer countries I'm ok with them hunting because it's really is for there survival. Sometimes they hunt rare & endangered animais for money and I really don't agree with that but can you blame them if they are doing it to live themselves. But in north america or mais well off countries they are doing it just for fun or tradition. What over population? I see mais of it the other way around, under population, species going extinct from hunting, cities growing and encrouching on the animais homes so that they have hardly any land left to live on and start going into the cities (Like the deer that someone mention before in another comment)

I'm not sure if I should even breach the subject because it's a whole other augument but what about the animais lives. They are sentient beings with feelings and souls and lives. Anyone who has ever had a pet can't deny that they have emotions, they're intelligent, they communicate with eachother. Therefor they aren't that different from us, and I don't know how people can be so insensitive to think otherwise. I don't know how people get enjoyment from the brutality of killing animals.

I don't really mind it at all as long as you do it legally.

I hunt (I know, hard to believe, but I'm a viking!)
