I also feel the hatred...I couldn't agree more. I also feel the hatred of wolves & cats (both predators - and let's not forget hatred of coyotes) because they hunt & kill prey, which is natural contrasted with a reverence for hunters who, mostly through trickery, "hunt" and kill their prey is hypocritical and anachronistic. And it's the so-called conservationists that are the biggest promoters of humans as hunters. <br /><br />Natural predators kill the weak, sick & old. Unnatural hunters kill whatever moves and relish the chance to get a "trophy" animal, the very individuals that should be left alive to breed & strengthen the species. The outcry of the inflated gazilliion birds killed by cats (total BS) never includes the number of birds killed by hunters, the non-native species imported to hunt (pheasants) and species like the passenger pigeon hunted into extinction by humans. The most serious threat to wildlife is US - humans, hunters or not.Connie, Orlandohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03352603326494248659noreply@blogger.com
