Everything has a right to live a happy and healthy life, free from pain and suffering, not just the humans. And its very bad Karma to hurt others for your own fun, excitement and entertainment, don't you think?
Or do other being share this planet just for the human species to wound, kill, slaughter, and cause pain and suffering to?

Dont get me wrong, I was an Avid! Avid! Avid! fly fisherman and hunter for many years. But I was also doing just about everything without thinking about it, just doing it because everyone else was "just doing it."

We are not here to harm others and doing so will lead to a bad next life. Maybe even to live as a fish or deer our self the next time around. Or even worst.
Please think before you hurt and cause pain and suffering for your own entertainment.
Wow are you serious? Have you ever heard of the food chain? Should all living creatures become vegetarian? I love to see that out on the Serengeti when a lion is eating a nice patch of grass instead of an impala. Don’t get we started on the fishing and hunting aspect either. Fish and animals would die of starvation and over population.
