    I think that people don’t understand that humans are also creatures in this world. Hunting has been natural in the entire history of humanity, it’s still natural. We’re part of nature as much as animals. They hunt to survive, so do we. If you don’t feel comfortable, fine, you can think that’s not just. But if you expect nature to be just, well, I have bad news for you... it has never been, it is not and it’ll never be just. This is what it is, reality. Get used to it.

      No I don’t, but what if I want to? It’s still the role of a man in the food chain.
      Again we are also part of nature, and like it or not, we dominate it.

      I mean, if you want to preach about the “role of man in the food chain”, then at least know what you’re talking about. Humans are not apex predators. They’re not even predators. If it weren’t for all the weapons that cowards hide behind, we’d be nothing more than food. But go ahead, go take on a lion or a tiger without a weapon. Show me who’s the top of the food chain. Lmao.
      Hunting for food is fine, whatever, that’s true survival. Those are real hunters. I’m not against it in any way.
      As for trophy hunting, you’re nothing more than a baby back bitch. That’s all there is to it. Never were, and never will be true hunters.
      And don’t even bring up the whole “managing the population” bullshit card that all you wannabe “hunters” like to pull. If populations need managing, and the ecosystem needs to be saved and maintained, then we ought to legalize murder, as after all, humans are the most over populated animal and are destroying the environment.

    • @fabacarini
      @fabacarini 5 лет назад +117

      If it weren’t for all those weapons those “cowards” hide behind, hardly we would even be here. How do you think they hunted throughout history? With flower, talking kindly to the animals or with spears and axes?
      The weapons are the proof of our higher intellect(that is what I was talking about when I said that we dominate nature).
      Our unique abilities make the Homo sapiens superior, we’re not stronger than most of those creatures, but we’re smart enough to create weapons that could destroy all the species on earth(even our own lol) if you don’t think that’s superiority, well... then I don’t know what it is.
      If you think hunters are stupid only because they like doing that, again, that’s fine. But as I said, evolution gave us the intellectual superiority to play with nature, we’re only enjoying it.
      BTW, I don’t even like hunting, never hunted before, and hardly will... It’s just that I know those guys respect what they hunt. And I hate when people say that whatever humans do it’s invading animals space, where do we belong then? That’s my point, this is our home as much as theirs.
      I’m starting to be repetitive ;)

    For those who want insight into the WHY:
    1. Scientists/Biologists closely keep track of the ecology and BALANCE in the area
    2. They sell tags for hunters to hunt specific animals on very strict terms
    3. The purpose is to raise money to fund back into the ecosystem, while balancing populations for a healthy and sustainable wildlife
    If one animal becomes too populated it can really mess up the balance in a certain area. This system maintains that balance. It is backed by biologists who understand the ecology, and hunters who also want to give back by paying for these tags.
    It took me a few years to really understand this. These people can't just get up and go hunting for bears. They must follow a very strict guideline. There is poor-ethical hunting in the world, but that is slowly diminishing because of the bad effects it has. This is the opposite of that.

      I understand hunting and how it works but I will never understand how cowardly human beings are. This is an animal that, without a gun, could end your life in 5.8 seconds. One that you would never not carry a weapon when in their territory. But yet, these cowards go out and kill them for 'sport', because we have weapons. It's not to control population, nature does that all by itself, and has for millions and millions of years. Humans don't need to control the ecosystem. Hunting for food is one thing, hunting for thrills is another. I desperately hope on the next hunt his gun malfunctions and he gets mauled by the bear he's trying to kill!! We'll see how brave he is then.

    Even as an avid outdoorsman, gun owner, trapper and hunter, I can understand the raw emotion behind people who say it's wrong to hunt bears and some other animals, because they are so majestic. BUT with that said, I also have the intelligence that the anti-hunters don't have, and that is backed by studies done by the real conservationists who understand that a predator without a predator will destroy every other animal in the forrest, and will overpopulate which then leads to disease and illness in that animal.
    Maybe not a perfect example, but still a rather extreme case is in the Everglades where the Burmese Python (which is an invasive species) has literally destroyed most of the animal population because it has no predator to challenge it and keep it in check. Hunters have been given authority to kill them on sight, and are being depended on to save the animal populations in the Everglades. This will probably be unsuccessful since a single Burmese Python lays almost 100 eggs and is totally out of control. The B. Python truly is a majestic creature, and I say that as someone who used to own one, and I still own several snakes as pets. But I fully support the hunting of them where they are causing an imbalance in nature.
    The point being, hunters are used by real conservationists who keep data on animal populations to control and help nature thrive. Long before a species is in jeopardy, hunting of that animal will be suspended and the predators killing it can then be hunted to help balance it out.

      @@garywright9715 Who do you think pays for most of that conservation? Do you realize who the first people to start the conservation movement in America (and the rest of the world) were? They were hunters. And I've got a news flash for you, in the absence of private hunters, the government kills just as many if not more of these animals than hunters do. Just look at California for example. All the tree huggers in the cities who really have no idea about conservation complained when they considered allowing mountain lion hunts again, and they successfully blocked the courts from allowing cougar hunting in the state of California. The result? Tons of farmers began having their livestock killed by mountain lions, people's pets in suburbs started getting killed, and people hiking on trails started to be attacked again. So now, the government goes out and kills the mountain lions themselves. When the rangers can't keep up with the amount of the population that needs to be culled, they contract out to professional commercial hunters who are getting paid to do nothing but kill these animals, and oftentimes are not allowed to harvest any meat from their quarry.
      So, what you're really saying is that you are okay with people getting paid to hunt wildlife, but you're not okay with people paying to hunt wildlife (which in turn gets donated to conservation efforts) and actually using the meat to feed themselves and their families. You're a hypocrite, just like many other self-proclaimed environmentalists who support practices that are extremely damaging to the ecosystem (like the ban on logging in the Pacific Northwest, but that's a whole other can of worms).

The govt actively hunt brown bear, cougars, moose, polar bears, tigers, lions, sharks, leopard seals,leopards, whales....No they don't. They manage wildlife and allow hunters to hunt. You think your dollars managed by bureaucrats put all that money into conservation? No! They enact laws and use the money how they see fit. And then you go on a rant about farmers loosing livestock...Really? Ever heard of the forestry? They are govt employees that are their to enforce federal and state laws. Cougars arn't the problem for farmers...Govt is!!!!! Amazing how you see 7 billion humans and a few thousand bears as an in balance for the human race. Alaska is a state of over 500,000 square miles with less than 1 person per square mile and yea we need to kill the bear. The bear feeds the ppl? You have any idea how silly and uneducated that sounds? When wildlife threatens us I'm all in for taking care of it. When it's ego driven ppl who can afford to pay the Govt for the privilege...Guess what? Kill to conserve is your creed. God created nature not you, and I think indulgence on our part is questionable at best. Hunters take, and their money they pay for the privilege is just their excuse to justify something they can't.

Then the moose population rises. That being said, as a hunter, under properly regulated hunting, as far as I know, no species has ever gone extinct from hunting.

Born and raised Alaskan Native and I have seen how these animals decimate the Moose population first hand. They don’t eat everything they kill either. They will take out 3-4 a week and the the carcasses to rot.

    When people say that it's cruel hunting bears, at least a bear got to live a nice long life in the wild. You're fine with eating animals raised for nothing but to be killed and have a horrible life. But these guys kill a certain amount of bears to keep the population in check because if there are too many bears all the other animals will go extinct. These bears were able to live a nice natural life and got a quick and humane death. If you eat meat and are opposed to hunting you are an absolute idiot. If bear populations went unchecked they would kill everything. Bears, especially brown/grizzly bears are not sweet cute animals, they would kill you without hesitation if it saw you in the woods. However I feel like most people complaining have never spent a day in the woods. Bear hunting and hunting in general is necessary and helps conserving all the natural wildlife in North America. And is much more humane and natural than factory farming. Get off your high horses. You anti-hunting people say how cruel hunters are even though we truly admire these animals and want them to be around forever. Banning hunting would do nothing but ruin the ecosystem.

      Brandon Marshall very well said and it true. The natural world has no feelings and this bear would have eventually died of disease, being killed by another bear or by some bizarre wilderness accident that only a bear could initiate. Getting taken out by a hunter is a very humane way to go. And we truly respect the game we kill.

They all seem to think bears of all breeds are dying off for some reason when reality in most places there are as many if not more bears around today then 100 years ago, bears will destroy areas of wildlife in large numbers the same can be said of wolves. They just go through all the food (other animals) until they are all dead or move on then forcing the bears to move out to go after them and other animals. The people who scream the most often know the least.

    I’d love to hunt black bear. I heard they’re delicious, especially if much of their diet was made of berries. Truth is, bear hunting is needed in some places. Predators could decimate prey, and then wander into town for food found in the trash. My mom’s boyfriend lives on his own mountain in the Rockies. According to wildlife management, 5 black bears live on or very near that mountain, and they’re becoming an issue. My mom’s boyfriend tries to hide his trash in his old locked pickup, but bears are smart and very strong. They’ve broken into that truck numerous times using different methods. Who knew bears could pick locks! So, wildlife management has offered 3 free, year-round, ready-whenever bear tags for those black bears so they won’t be such an issue.
    Predator hunting is just as needed and ethical as prey hunting. Never forget that.
