Is it fair/legal/sporting to shoot deer by leaning out your window and potting them while they're in your yard? Seems a bit too easy.

No. There is a no shooting zone around homes and builds. With special permissions bow hunters can shoot inside those zones in some cases like overpopulation destroying the understory of a forest. The article I mentioned was about food quality and being moral in our eating and hunting. It was not a defense of canned hunts.

A Texas hunting ranch is not the same as being in a reserve in Senegal.
She's right.

They are thriving in Texas. They are dying in Senegal.

Where would you rather be? Burger King, or Ethiopia?

Having said that, I must also say that I do not condone paying to kill an animal. I know that's not how they say it is, but, at a lot of guided exotic animal hunts, that's kinda what it boils down to. And it's not limited to exotic animals. It should be difficult, if for no other reason than to cause you to retain your respect for the animal. The folks on that 60 Minutes show were not (what I call hunting). You can kill a water buffalo (for $50,000!), in a pen (however gigantic that pen may be, and trust me, they're in a pen. What, you gonna let your $50,000 water buffalo wander around wherever he wants?), in Texas, wearing (basically) street clothes, following your guide, while being followed by a reporter, at least one camera man, a sound man, probably a gaffer or two, talking to each other. That, ain't hunting.

Try that in Kentucky while trying to hunt a wild, unpenned, free-ranging whitetail deer.

You won't get far.

I have some water buffalo hide here. Very thick, but very supple leather. The sections I have are dyed white. I haven't decided what I'll make from it.
