A badger ! fuck no ! !!!!!!! . The point is its the stalking , keeping out of the wind so it can't smell you . Not making a noise , not putting up any birds , or other ground game just to get you into a position to take a clean shot . The actual squeeze of the trigger . Once you have sent it, its all over .

If I were a sheep I’d rather take a bullet when I wasn’t expecting it after a full life on some god forsaken island than in an abattoir.

 

She does look like a silly mare though.

Islay is God's country Mick, plus eight of the finest whiskey distilleries in the world. So even better for the sheep.

What about tackling a beast bare handed without even a knife? Someone with good teeth could possibly sink them into its jugular

Brian Blessed reputedly punched a Polar Bear in the face. That any good?

Bear fighting, of course its any good. He also reckons he delivered a baby under a tree in Richmond Park in the sixties, using his teeth to sever the umbilical chord. Maybe it was the second coming

Proper hunting does make you appreciate the real world. That silly cow is a poser and makes more money from that program than us tree folk. Kill it -bless it n eat it. K
