you couldnt be further from the truth. The hunters in Africa are the reason the animals are still there. If you hunt an elephant (yes there are areas where there are too many elephants) the monies you pay go to habitat rebuilding and to further the species. If it wasnt for hunters and the HUGE amount of money they generate there would be far more extinct animals in the world today. In the US hunters put out more money to provide habitat than any other gorup in the world. More than any animal rights group or anyone else. There are many sucess stories that directly involve hunters and the money they generate. One of the largest sucess stories is that of the wild turkey. the NWTF (National Wild Turkey Foundation) has had programs to reintroduce the birds all accross the country and now there are huntable populations where the bird was almost extinct in the past. Hunters do not rape the land but respect it far more than most other people and pay alot to keep it that way

/me wishes the Earth was the size of Jupiter

This is why we should set up a secondary habitat on Mars!

Well we'd have to figure out the whole oxygen thing first, I suppose...

They should just have more nature reserves, where rangers can follow-up and monitor the activities of the bigger animals, such as elephants, big cats, bears etc....They could also offer tours for the public, where a group could be taken around in a vehicle to watch the animals...

Much like they do in Africa. It's better for the animals and also makes it a more romantic experience for the public who visit, seeing the animals live in their habitat, happy and acting as they would if they were unwatched.

The smaller animals are easier to cater for in city zoos, basically because of their size - they only venture around in a smaller habitat, and wouldn't notice walls all around them.

My thoughts exactly.

Yeah, I can honestly see how bludgeoning an elephant for his tusks can help him in the long run... rolleyes:

The hunters in africa are NOT the reason why the animals are still there....I can't believe you're trying to feed me this shit...The reservations, rangers and locals who support the animals are the reasons why they're still there. How can someone that only murders and poaches, be helpful to the advancement of any species they kill? It's a fucking anomaly.

Hunters only provide more money to the "habitat" so they can have more of the animal to hunt the shit out. There's nothing noble about it....and it's definitely not respect, as you put it.

You should be embarrased.

again you are wrong. the money pays the saleries of those rangers. Poacher and hunters are on the oppisite side of eachother. Poaching has been reduced because of the money paid by the hunters. As far as killing for tusks, that is VERY illegal. The tusks go to the African govt. When you book a hunt in Africa you need two things. A permit and a guide. The permit costs alot (goes to the African Govt.)and the guide takes the meat from the kill and it goes to his village to feed his people. The tusks (if elephant hunting) are replicated in something other than ivory. exporting ivory is a huge nono. I can, and will, find facts to back up my statements. I respect mother earth more than anyone on this board and have nothing to be embarresed about.



PS I have never heard of someone bludgeoning an elephant, but spin it how you like

You can say whatever you like but the facts remain:

* You don't hunt for any of those reasons, you hunt because you like the thrill of killing animals.

* You only support the rebuilding of habitats so that there are more of the animals to kill.

All that other stuff is just little things that hunters do to attempt to back up their murderous sport.

...bottom line, that isn't respect for mother earth....and believe me, you don't respect her more than anyone else on this board, how could you possibly know that...
