Four Activists Arrested (Iranian-American Animal Rights Activist Threatens Hunters)

This week I've been hunting bear and deer at Wildcat Ridge WMA in Rockaway, and Black River WMA in Chester. I've seen plenty of hunters, but not one animal nut.

I've seen no bear or deer either, unfortunately.

I believe NJ Freeper was up at Hamburg Mountain WMA in Vernon, and didn't see any ALF thugs protesting. Maybe he can confirm.

I'm going to Wawayanda next week for deer, so maybe I'll run into these folks in the woods.

I had done a lot of scouting early in the year and had picked out a bit of terrain a mile or so off the road on federal land. It was my first time up there in NJ so I thought I was OK. Dawn on opening day coming into me from the windward side was a 450+lb male (the very one I had scouted and put myself in position for) he was lumbering along taking no notice of me 35 feet up in my stand. When he was about 150 yards out (in hail mary range for my smoothbore but outside my effective range) another hunter crossed about 50 feet in front of me spooking him.

I had done everything right except I underestimated the size of the crowd. Had I know they would be hiking in that far I would have set up another 1/2 mile or so further in and would have gotten him.

Oh well.

"I'll get my Arab friends and hunt you down; see how you like it".

Yeah.....because they've been so good at it everywhere else in the world (do they even have any forests left in their festering 4th-world s**thole countries anyway, or did they cut them all down to run their wood-burning hash pipes?).

They're all such lousy riflemen and fighters in general that their only recourse has been the weapons of cowards, like suicide bombings and IED's.

Pretty much everywhere we've met them on a battlefield with guns, they die like flies.

It's gonna be difficult for him to drive his beat up old loser-mobile packed with explosives into the woods, and it would kill all of the cute little fauna anyways.

I'd pay money to see 'em go up against a bunch of huntin' Bubbas in the woods any day.

"What's witht his hyphenated American crap? Either you are American or your not."

In this case, not.

[CaptRon]

Since Monday, an unknown number of them have canvassed the woods, pledging to find and rescue any bears that have been wounded, but not killed, by hunters' gunfire.

How incredibly kind.

Or stupid.

One of the two.

[NJ Freeper]

Well you had better luck than me because I didn't see a bear or even bear tracks. I went on Tuesday after a fresh blanket of snow had fallen. I saw plenty of deer tracks but no bear tracks. I've seen bears in this part of the woods before often too.

Still too dark, that was one of the protesters no doubt.

Animal Rights Activist Threatens Hunters

Smart.

[tcostell]

I was set to the northeast of Millbrook village. I scouted back there in the summer and saw lots of Bears and scat so I knew there would be something there.

Next year I might try private land if I can find some otherwise I think I'm going to go to Pensy. Corzine will probably cancel the Bear Hunt anyway, but if I had some private land to hunt I might consider putting in the work.

"I would like to see the Video of them approaching a wounded bear.

Future 'darwin award?""

Future Sundance award if carefully lit and videoed. And the DVD sales to Safari Club and NRA members would amount to a tidy profit.

[GladesGuru]

From your weight estimate, that was not only a protestor, it was a sow protestor.

[denydenydeny]

Hilarious.

Let me get this straight...members of a religion which ritually slaughters animals are now...animal rights activists?

I'll believe them when they go to Mecca to protest the ritual slaughter of sheep during the Haj.
