They’re called Ragondin here, and we’re overrun with them. They are classed as an invasive species and you can shoot them all year around

I don't think humane hunting is hypocritical at all. A swift end, out of the blue, no transport stress - that's as humane as you can be as a carnivore.

I agree with you because you know what you are doing and you care.

But then do you and other hunters who care then go home and pay your money for this to happen.

you must watch this latest evidence and come back and say that it is not hypocritical to put so much effort into humane hunting and then pay for this to happen to highly intelligent animals that you respect.

Please note the “and”. Vegans AND shooting!

Last week I got a call from a local guy I knew who had trapped a coypu by his fishing lake. He wanted me to come over and break a hat in it’s bottom!

I went over, performed the aforementioned task, and conversation quickly went in a fishing direction. He has stocked his lake with carp, there’s plenty of roach, perch etc, and another guy has asked if he wants to go over and catch/remove the bream that have filled his lake!
He bought the house as he’d always wanted a fishing lake, did I fish? Come over anytime you want, I enjoy the company.

The only problem he has is the large number of copyu that come up from the local streams and undermine the banks of his lake. We chatted a little more which has ended up with me supplying him something to help control them. I then told him I had a great recipe for a pate you can make with the saddle meat.

”Oh no” he says “My wife and I are vegan, have been for five years now”.

I saw no hint of humour or leg-pulling in his face and pointed at the rather large carcass at our feet.

”Well I’m not going to eat it, am I?”

It takes allsorts.

There is an expiation

There are many reasons for going Vegan but there are three main ones.

Health , Bill Clinton is just one example

Enviromental, UN Recommendations

And the main one unnecessary suffering of animals and this where humane Hunting looks hypocritical to put all that effort into a clean kill then pay for what happens in this amazon film
