6 Reasons Why You Should Never Go Hunting

Animals are cute, innocent, defenceless and wonderful. It angers me a lot that selfish people, whether it’s trophy hunting in Africa or any other kind of hunting, take joy out of killing innocent creatures. So here are 6 reasons people shouldn’t hunt.

It causes suffering

Animals are not objects. They have feelings as well. They love, they breathe, they eat, they drink and they feel pain. Hunting causes an immense amount of suffering. Sometimes they don’t die instantly after being shot, but have 15 minutes of heartbreaking pain. 

It orphans animals

How would you feel if your family gets taken away in a cruel way? Hunting tears animal family’s apart. From the baby bear in the USA who grows up without his mother to the giraffe in Africa who will miss the love of his life. No family should ever be broken. No animal family’s either.

People don’t need hunting to survive

There are plenty of other ways to get fruit, bread and food without shooting animals.

You can entertain yourself in other ways

You enjoy shooting things? That’s no excuse to go hunting. You can go paint-balling with your friends. Or play video games.

Hunting doesn’t balance nature

Hunters often shoot the strongest animals. This messes up the natural balance, where the fittest animals survive the weakest. Nature perfectly takes care of itself when it comes to overpopulation. So the argument about population control doesn’t convince me.

Too many accidents 

It has happened too many times that a dog, a cow or even a person got accidentally shot during hunting.

So for the hunters out there, there is only one more target out there for you: Put your inhumane and unnecessary hobby to rest!!!
