NOTE: Hunting is not only a perfectly legal activity; it is also a part of wildlife preservation. Legal hunting is humane and prevents the suffering of animals. A good hunter will kill its game instantly. Virtually all hunters will do everything in their power to prevent suffering. This should be contrasted with how animals domesticated for food production are treated (do you know how your steak or chicken was made?). It should also be contrasted with the way the vast majority of animals die in the wild (which is cruelly). Hunting controls wildlife populations and prevents over population, starvation and damage to human and animal habitats.

NEVER COMPARE LEGITIMATE HUNTERS, YOUNG OR OLD, WITH INDIVIDUALS WHO INTENTIONALLY CAUSE ANIMALS TO SUFFER!!!!

These are various hunting pictures mostly taken from Rough Creek Lodge. It is mostly bird hunting pictures, Quail, Pheasant, Chukar, Wild Turkey but also deer hunting pictures. We also went hunting on a place called Upland Game Birds but these photos were destroyed in a harddisk crash. The time line is reversed so the photos at the bottom are the oldest. The top four rows are from our latest trip to Rough Creek when Jacob and his friend Kelan was hunting.
