(154,021 posts)so you are happy to eat chicken? How about Cow? Eggs. Milk, Pork, Goat? Have you looked into how they are raised? Or you will not bother with that? Let me show you some.
You think this is more humane?
I guess this is more... ahem, civilized
I guess this is much better too. I mean it IS civilized.
And yes, it is biology 101, when you do not have an apex species you will have a population explosion... and they will either collapse from disease or starvation, or both. We call this balance.
Look, even the World Wild Life Fund GETS IT

So yes, my other choice is to reintroduce wolves, and bobcats, and mountain lions.
For the record, my weapon of choice is a NIKON with a 300 mm lens attached to it.
This is my weapon of choice

I would prefer the D7000 but it was a tad out of my price range.
Just because I get it why people hunt... and no, I do not consider it evil, as long as the animal is used up, and calories consumed. As to souls, well, given I do not believe in life after death, except as a way for my calories and all the chemicals trapped in my body to rejoin the environment and become part of the cycle of life... there you have it.
