Nice Spot Vulcan...hey if a US citizen comes down to work on a permit are they allowed a rifle and hunting permit as well? I am out of work here in a couple of weeks and have considered moving for a year or more to that part of the world. Just curious.

OK.. so help me understand this.

Yes I understand that people hunt.  As a man who indulges in carnivorous activities quite often (including venison from time to time) I completely understand that.  And while I'm not attracted to the activity, I can also understand how some people can enjoy hunting.  I can assume that there is some kind of sport involved in the whole thing, and I can understand how some people can be attractive to that.  I get it.

What I don't get is the need to post pictures of a person posing in front of a dead carcass.  I find it revolting in a sense, and I don't understand the attraction of it all.  So you shot a Buck.  Good for you.  Likewise, I also don't understand the whole taxdermified deer head on a plaque, or in the nature setting in the corner of a room.

For the record, I also feel the same way to posing in front of a dead fish, or any other dead animal for that matter...

Well, for a genuine hunter it usually takes a lot of skill, effort and patience. I hunt, I do it for fitness, the outdoors, stress relief from work, and the free meat :) . Not really into the trophy thing but hey if some people enjoy that let em ;)
