And that's all good! I'm with ya! I've eaten venison and pheasant, and LOVE fishing and eating trout.
Here's an example of what I don't like:
1) "OMG, there's a rattlesnake!!!" BLAM!
2) "He dude, lets go out and shoot us some coyotes"
3) "RABBIT! Its coming right for us!" BLAM!
Its the needlessness of some of it. I understand, you have a venomous snake in your yard, most folks get out a spade. But why kill it? Relocate it instead.
And unless you have a chicken coupe, I really don't understand the "varmint" thing...coyotes and rabbits are part of the ecosystem, just like rattlesnakes. People are the ones making a mess, not them.
Anyway, fishing season is about to start for me!
