How about human overflow into animals environments?

There's 7.5 BILLION of us, headed to 10, and we are the dominant species.
If you have a solution, please..... Share.

How sad that the hunters will have to wait to take to the woods with their penis extenders. Poor babies.
An incredibly dumb comment.

[quote=Quinn 4]"It not something that can always be stopped" We as human can stop it if we want to. Gandhi's quote, he is saying if a nation can treated its animal right. It has already taking care the welfare of it people. I don't agree with everything that Gandhi wrote or said.[/quote
Stop it? Really???
Please elaborate.

Finally a scientific approach to this emotional issue. It is very interesting that the people who "feel" hunting is bad or should be banned are not generally from the American West or if they are they are cloistered in some city. I don't hunt any more but have killed three deer in collisions with my pickup truck since I quit hunting. From the evidence I've seen a clean shot is more humane than being splattered all over the highway. There are more deer in this country than there were in the early 1800's when Lewis and Clark explored the west. I don't see anybody railing against animal harvest when it's done by indigenous peoples by way of treaty, custom, inclination or native rights. The tribes generally have fish and game departments aimed at stewardship of their animals and way of life. Many in the west depend on harvested wildlife as a source of protein.. Get over it..

How much of the "wildlife habitat" did your home take??
The point I was trying to make is that humans cannot live on this earth without killing for meat, or taking up wildlife habitat. some people think it is bad to kill a wild animal because it is pretty, but they will happily go buy meat at the store. Either way, you are causing the death an animal.
The only cure is for people to quit having children so the wildlife can take over again.

People are selective about which animals they want to protect. The more majestic and/or beautiful the more emotion is attached.

Why? If its done responsibly without hurting a sustainable population its no different than hunting any other animal.

And if one or more of those "beautiful creatures" attacked you or killed someone you cared about or maybe a pet ... or destroyed your property ... what would you do then? Grow up

I'd never put myself or a pet in a situation where a bear...or any other wild animal...might kill me or the pet. I'd never blame the bear for my stupidity in encroaching on its territory. The common-law doesn't allow you to track down, then kill, a person who may have killed a member of your family, or a friend. So, why should a bear be killed under the same, or similar, circumstances..or just for the glory and thrill of killing, which most hunters possess.

You mean you'd "try" not to. Its not always possible. They are dangerous and very intelligent.

That's propaganda not fact. Your argument is based on emotion. How about the ranchers this affects? The lost livestock?

When they come down out of the forests, mountains or wilderness into an established housing area, school or similar inhabited area you can't be so nice.

You are equating hunting with murdering people?
Maybe because animals are worth more!
