Scary photo–but I don’t subscribe for hunting unless you’re starving for food.

Those who hunt because they eat what they hunt i respect. It is partly because i do not want to kill that i am a vegan.

Well done! I wish all hunters had to switch places with the animal so they knew what it felt like. Good take on this prompt. ❤
