Happy Female Hunter Bags Mountain Lion & Posts Photos. Angry Animal-Rights Folks Storm Social Media in the Most Vile Ways Imaginable. | Video | TheBlaze.com

I dont have issue with hunting for food and even, to a degree, taking out animals for "wildlife management" as they call it.

And while I certainly think the posts by those angered about this border on psycho, I must say, Ive never been a huge fan of hunting for "sport" or sitting their posing with some animal you shot as if you are so proud and giddy.

Good for you. You took out an animal with a rifle. Is that supposed to impress me? The animal didnt have a chance. Why dont you wrestle it and take it on with an even playing field? Then maybe i'll be impressed.

Not really something to be angered about unless she killed a protected animal for sport.

Agreed. I just dont like how they pose and get all happy as if it was some big accomplishment. Dont be so proud of yourself, showing off your trophy when that trophy never stood a chance against a rifle.

Your either a hunter or, not.

It is just a matter of what one likes.......I do not hunt but, my husband lives to hunt and fish.

Yes, we have many trophies in this "man cave".

We eat what is killed.....in fact venison is our main meet.

Once the animal is dead it does not matter if a photo is taken or, a trophy is made....dead is dead.

BTW, it is not always a easy shot......many times hunters miss.

What's wrong with being proud and happy?

I guess these liberals are conducting a war on women.

I dont hate hunters. Its not something that gets me so riled up and angry about. The idea of hunting for sport Ive never really like though. And sure, Im sure some shots are difficult, but in all reality, the animals dont often stand a chance. So that is more why I find the trophy and the proudness thing a bit silly is all. Im not going to protest or want to ban it or anything like that. Just have my own feelings on it is all.

That cat will visit her in her sleep.

She'll probably be tutored on who should properly own and wear a beautiful fur coat.

She killed the object of her jealousy.

It is important for some to control their pangs of jealousy.

I do not think you hate hunters......like I said it is just different preference.

I will tell you in our area the deer heard needs controlled......for man and deer.

Deer car accidents can be deadly and without control the deer will face starvation more than they do now.

This has been a very hard year for the deer.

If you would read the entire article, you would see that that state made a limited hunting of these big cars legal to manage their population. Without the special hunting license, killing over the limit, and killing out of season is all illegal unless there's a threat to life.
