Default I Know This May Start A Debate But...

...shooting a cub?

Come on!

Here's my take on hunting. It's not a skill. You have a high powered rifle against a defenseless animal that has no idea it's going to be shot.

A "real" hunter (IMO) would sport a loin cloth and maybe have a knife or rock (hey, if you can fashion a spear out of materials gathered in the woods, more power to ya!) and then go after the bear/deer/moose etc.

That would take some skill. Would "hunters" die in the process? Probably. But at least the animal would have a fair chance.

And before people attack me (pun definitely intended) I understand that we need to hunt to control the population and to get rid of the sick and weaker ones, but a cub?

Karma baby!!!

*In my best Forrest Gump impression*, That's all I have to say about that.
