It’s Not Coronavirus Reviving Wildlife, It’s Hunters

I have turned a few anti-hunters neutral by explaining that humans have removed most natural predators and without hunting, the populations would explode. Once this explosion happens, food sources will not be able to support the increased population. Starvation will begin and then disease will follow.

Then I ask what is more humane; shooting an animal and making a clean kill or letting the animals starve, get hit by vehicles, or die from disease?

They normally admit at that point that they never thought about it that way.
 
I had a pretty clean kill a couple years ago.

Cut a deer in half with my motorcycle at 70mph.

Cop arrived..."huh. guess I don't have to ask what happened here, eh?"

The way I felt when he asked that (I always wear full gear, but I'd still superman'd over the bars and slid over 300 feet - that would be a football field - down the road)...he was lucky I didn't have my CCW yet.

Deer are probably the greatest fear I have when on my motorcycle. I can somewhat stay away from other drivers, but I have no control over animals.
 
I just take a break at dusk now. Daytime, I'm good. Full-night, I'm good. Dusk, when they're running? I'll stop for a burger, or to go through the outlet mall...
 
Another great article, Talyn. It is sometimes difficult to explain the role hunters play, especially when most of the news outlets bombarding the uninformed are anti-gun and thus (mostly) anti-hunter.
