Default Re: Can Someone Explain Hunting to Me?

[ QUOTE ]
Anyone can squeeze a trigger, but not anyone can successfully hunt, for example, mountain goats. At every level, there is certainly something challenging to be done.

That sentence was supposed to be somewhat provocative, I know hunting takes skill. That said, I'm arguing that if a human is killing an animal just for the sake of killing - with no other reasonable cause (food would be one) - the fight shouldn't be so asymmetric. Also, if you are killing something for fun, you'd get a lot more out of killing it with your own hands than shooting it from 500 feet away.
