If you ask any member of PETA, they'll tell you right away that hunting is dangerous for the environment. They'll tell you how terrible and inhumane hunters are and how they take such great pleasure in the death of innocent animals. They'll tell you that meat is murder and that everything has a right to live. As for that last statement, I agree to a certain point. Everything has a right to live out it's intended purpose No one calls a wolf a murderer when it brings down an elk, and I am no different than a wolf. I eat what I fell. I am a hunter and I wear hunting t-shirts to let people know who and what I am.
Humans are hunters. Did you know that human beings are some of the greatest distance runners on the planet? We are built to track, hunt, and run down prey to the point of exhaustion. Our ancestors would run for days until an animal died from over exertion, and then we would rebuild our own tired, sore muscles from the protein their meat provides. We would not be here today if we had not developed those skills, and we certainly wouldn't have the most advanced brains in the world today. My hunting t-shirts are a symbol of my pride in our species.
Hunters love nature and everything she offers more than the average citizen of earth. Hunters appreciate what is given freely and are taught to only take what they can use. The average hunter looks at what careless people in cities do to the world and feel a pang of guilt for what their fellow humans are doing. When I enter the forest to hunt, I am overcome by the beauty of it and how grateful I am for everything God has given to us. The way we have squandered that gift breaks my heart. I wear hunting t-shirts to mourn for the loss of the wild.
If it were not for the modern hunter, the current deer population would be completely out of control. Deer, elk, and other herbivores breed quickly and mature fast because they have evolved to the point where they have to out perform the animals that stalk and kill them. Well, those animals are not nearly so plentiful as they once were because of careless practices of the past. Now, it is up to the human hunter to cut back the population of these prey animals so that they do not have a crueler fate during a foodless, long winter. I wear my hunting t-shirts because I know my responsibility as a human being.
We cannot all be hunters. Not any longer, anyway. There are far too many human beings in the world for us all to pick up a rifle and kill a deer. What you can do, as a responsible human being, is to leave the people who do hunt alone. We are not the monsters you think we are. We have learned how to take from the land only what it is able to give us, and we consume everything we take. Hunters are not bad people, and perhaps you should wear hunting t-shirts to remind you...just in case you forget.
