Alot of these animals were never hunted naturally by humans in the first place, so i don't see why the situation has changed simply because of plentiful fortunes and transport. I'd like to see big game hunting with bare hands and basic weapons - where the hunter is likely to be within 50 yards and the animal has some realistic sense of defending itself and getting some revenge on the bastards.

I could go on forever, but I'll let someone else take the soapbox.

Cheers,

what is the difference between killing big game and a deer?
you are still killing an animal for fun

absolutely ridiculous if you ask me
