7/13/2006: Arrow-shot ibis lives, evades helpers

grazzers · 07-13-2006, 02:48 PM

I got into archery last september and shoot for my university team, and enjoy it a lot, but I only use standard targets, why would you want to shoot animals? As this shot shows, its not nearly as humane as shooting the animal with a high accuracy rifle (which I still disapprove of, but at least the animal is dead before it can feel anything.)

No, I'm not vegetarian, but killing livestock for food is slightly different to shooting a bird for the fun of it.
