Or perhaps they simply don't like you?

I simply love it when people try and make it seem like Nature is full of nothing but crazed, rabid animals that will eat you at the slightest antagonism. True, there are some, but relatively rare and animals typically only attack with good reason. At least, sane animals. Wild animals that come into contact with Man too much are going to go whacko sooner or later.

Let me clarify...

I do not think hunting is wrong at all..

I just think baiting & shooting what was baited is wrong..

Of course it is defensive to respond when someone attacks your character and especially so when they know little to nothing of which they speak.

Actually I am entertaining myself because I am bored at the moment..

So your idea of entertainment is to insult other people?

Nice...

In PA, it IS illegal to bait and hunt. Doesn't matter if it's deer, bear, or whatever. And as far as what I know, you can't use dogs in PA either.

I don't fish with bait..I track them

and then there is the boiling lobsters alive issue...but they are so good..

Can't answer as to why fish do not count..I used to go down the pier when I was a kid and if i saw a fish just laying there gasping on the pier I would beg the person to have mercy LOL..Now I love to fish..

Well, it's like a dead and bloated animal.... you know if you poke it with a stick it is going to stink..... At some point you have to make the decision to poke it or simply leave it alone and walk away.
