I don’t hunt. Don’t care for it, had no possibility to either.
But, we as a species have had thousands of years where the man went out to hunt for food for his family. This instinct is still there, even though it is no longer necessary. But I’d imagine that is the reason that hunters hunt. It’s an activity we have been wired to do.
Some of us found other ways to “hunt”, like gaming, or chasing work goals, basically anything that will require you to focus for a while on one single thing with a clearly defined goal to get to. But I can imagine if you are raised in family where hunting is still done, it would be easy to pick it up for yourself.
TBF, if it’s a humane kill, it’s a single shot, and said lion won’t even realize it’s dead before the sound of the rifle reaches its neurons, rapidly flickering out.
Wouldn’t it be great if canned/tour hunts like this shit suddenly somehow ended with the Great Divine Whitey sighting down his scope and feeling a deep spiritual connection with all his days having been lined up perfectly to produce that singular, defining moment (and that’s when the expert local guide swiftly, silently puts two through his brain pan.)
Effeciency. I know a lot of hunters that also eat what they kill, and adhear to limits. It’s a lot of work dressing and animal post kill. Also, its just stupid to hunt without a ranged weapon. Especially against larger animals.
Now, to the guys that just hunt for sport and not eat the kill…their heads belong on a wall too.
