Hunting

Hunting is a fun sport but back when the first bow and arrow was made people had to hunt to survive. We might think of it as a sport or a family tradition, but in reality we have been doing it for years, through the generations to keep our old way of living alive. Some people today still hunt for a living but most do it for the fun of it. People like to feel the rush of shooting an animal while hoping they hit it. I love to hunt just for the excitement of the kill.  It also provides food for the family.  Even if you don’t need it, it is nice to know that you did something on your own.

Some people don’t like harming animals because it is cruel to kill an animal for pleasure. Well, to those that say that I will say this to you.  If there weren’t hunters out there, animals would get a lot more diseases and the deer population would increase as well.  It would increase the rate of car crashes due to there being that many deer. As long as hunters don’t hunt an animal to extinction then I don’t see what the problem is with hunting.

Like I said before hunters actually keep the animal population in check so that diseases don’t spread and cause an extinction of an animal species. I don’t get what some people’s problems are with hunting, but as long as things stay the way they are everything should end up ok. They should just stick to what they’re good at and the hunters will keep on doing what they were supposed to do. Hunt animals.
