I wouldn't do it. Its not fair to the bear if it were legal.So, how about that Trump administration's ruling that makes it legal to kill hibernating bears? It's legal. OK to do it if it's legal?
I'm just messing with you.
Laws like that usually vary by state.
But to answer your tease, we all have our own moral compass. There are things legal I wouldn't do and things illegal I would do.
Ok. Ill bite.maybe if everyone did what you do I might have a different perspective
but in my experience most do not
Name personal things or times you've actually seen illegal hunting practices.
Did you call fish and game to report it?
Actual personal experience. Not something you read. Reading stories about it doesn't give a good perspective.
Every hunter I've been around has had similar views to mine.
I've seen poaching and reported it. I've actually stopped and said something I saw illegal and wrong. If I saw someone kill an animal and leave it lay I would kick their ass.
There will always be some bad apples. Don't judge the good hunters by their actions.
If game officers are doing wrong report it. I've known a number of game wardens. Every one I've known was passionate about their job.
I've volunteered and worked with them also. They do a lot of work repopulating animals.
I don't doubt there are a few bad ones.
I live in the hills in the bible belt.deep in the mountains of old moonshine country within the bible belt
small farm community where everyone knows everyone
reporting someone in these parts would be the equivalent to snitching on your cell mate for doing drugs in jail
theyd fuck me up and burn down my house
if I want to see animal cruelty I can just drive around, its everywhere
dogs covered in ticks and fleas tied to ropes they've never been off left out thru the cold and snow with toe nails as long as my fingers likely never been to a vet in there life and still intact
cows stuffed it tiny pens to make veal.. chickens stuffed in tiny spaces and horses covered in shit
I don't need a video to see it
go ahead and call the humane society, I did it once when I first moved her
guy had 20 beagles tied up in the yard covered in shit and ticks and was breeding and selling them, the humane society said as long as the dogs aren't under weight theres nothing to do
and then all they neighbors fucking hated me
on the other hand its nice that everyone minds there own business as is part of the culture
most of the locals, there family has been on these lands for over 100 years passed on to the next generation and some still own huge parcels
you come around there land telling them what to do and some hillbillys gonna shoot ya
Sure some don't treat their animals right. That's not what we are talking about.
You don't have to give your name when you report something.
