True hunters don't kill for sport - they eat what they kill. Again, if the knuckleheads you hang around with don't eat what they kill they are not hunters.

Yes, I eat what I kill. My son loves venison, although he has yet to take a deer. He loves the woods and loves the time we spend together in the pursuit of squirrels and deer. Going to introduce him to rabbit, pheasant and duck hunting this year if I can undo all the total spoiling my wife has done to our Labrador and our Beagle.

There's almost nothing better than squirrel pot pie or roast pheasant....

IN fact hunters who hunt and can't use what they hunt often donate it to a group called FHFH (Farmers and Hunters Feeding the Hungry). One guy (can't recall the name) ran across a woman who'd just hit a deer, he stopped to help and she asked him if he would help her put it in her trunk so they'd have something to eat. He felt bad that poor people were going around eating roadkill so started up FHFH.

Some hunters do not eat what they kill. These hunters donate the carcass to organization like Farmers and Hunters Feeding the Hungry (FHFH). Here, they killed the animal, and instead of hogging it all for themselves, they share it with the hungry people you find in shelters.

Sungirl's argument about hunters not needing to kill wildlife because they can buy meat from the grocery store is full of holes. The hunter has to eat. Just because a slaughter house had killed several tons of cattle for beef does not mean that the meat was meant for the hunter to eat. The only time the meat was meant for the hunter to eat, the only time ANY PERSON was meant to eat that meat is after they have paid for it, or otherwise took possession of the meat for consumption.

The hunter goes out to the field and decides to harvest an animal. After a successful harvest is when the hunter eats.
