[QUOTE="Meelosh, post: 276733, member: 3011"] About the actual article at hand here. I’d like to point out something the condescending Mr. Port said, specifically “Hunting is a hobby”. Like it’s something that’s really not all that important. Well here’s the deal, the meat I get from hunting represents a significant amount of the protein I consume on a yearly basis. I’ve never calculated it, but I’d guess anywhere from 10-20%. That is not insignificant. *This is where my tinfoil hat might be coming out. Consider yourself warned.* So let’s say that I have to replace that wild protein with some domestic protein because I can’t get access to wild game for whatever reason and let’s face it, I’m not going vegan anytime soon. Who benefits from that situation? Specifically, monetarily? If care to look at this from that perspective, look up Shane Mahoney and the Wild Harvest Initiative. The idea is to quantify just how many calories we take from wild sources as opposed to raised/domestic sources so the knowledge is public just how valuable that is. There has been some people on here before that don’t particularly care for Mr. Mahoney. Pay close attention to where those individuals usually lie on every issue that comes up with these types of topics. [/QUOTE]
