Gasp!!!!

Some folks haven't grown up in a hunting part of the country.
I am not a hunter but hunting is considered a sport by a good number of folks. It isn't illegal. It turns a lot of animal lovers off. We will hear both sides....passionately. |
I am not a hunter. However in my experience, I have seen that organizations who own hunting "preserves" and promote hunting are general pretty good stewards of the land.
I would think that environmentalists would see this most recent "Morse" acquisition as a positive development.-----Silly me! |
Hunting preserve or potential The Villages North West?
|
GOOD FOR THEM;;;;;;;:BigApplause:

I really, really, really despise hunting as a sport; however, if someone needs to hunt to eat I can accept that. Just can't see how it is fair to hide in a blind and kill a deer - what the hell is that all about????

Hunting is frequently harder than you think it is. Study after study says that licensing fees actually improve the overall habitat and the herd. I bow and rifle hunt but haven't shot anything for years but love to be out with nature.

Folks, meat does not come from the supermarket. See all the cattle as you drive around the area? Those animals don't die of old age. I no longer hunt but I've eaten a lot of game in my life, both big and small and as long as I eat meat I have no right to gripe about the hunters.

I could be wrongs as it applies to Florida but....
...not sure about the location near The Villages but up here the dear season does serve an important purpose since the population becomes too dense for the food supply. There is always a kill limit depending on your permit.

They'll probably re-locate the buffalo there so they can hunt (or poach) them.

It should help the economy in the Ocala area and provide a great venue for hunters. I enjoy burgers and an occasional Rib-eye!

Y'all ain't from around here, are ya? If you would like to get a feeling for the culture of rural Florida, hang out at a sporting goods store, or better, a tractor/farm supply retailer. Remember, gentle souls, that you are invasive and they are native.

Is it just me, or are the south deer on the small side.
They look like a BB gun would drop them. |

Just curious about the design of the square they put there. Hope it has a large dance floor with plenty of seating and enough room for market nights and lots of shopping and..... Oh, never mind.

I have seen wild Hogs along I-75 north of Gainesville that were way bigger than "key deer". The BIGGEST Deer I have EVER seen were on the West end of the Cell Phone Lot (RED lot) at the Orlando Airport...(on South Access Road). ......that statement coming from a person who is from "UP NORF"..... .....................................and we had some "biggins" roaming the farms. |
