hunting wolves, bears, cougars etc will keep these animals afraid of people and therefore, stay away from people....simple.... we endanger them when we think we can hug them or take selfies with them... let the wild animals remain wild....


I agree 100%. Was confronted by a coyote that my lab discovered a couple of years ago, and I had NOTHING in my hands. Fortunately, I was able to back away. Now, I always have a large stick, or I am carrying. If I am ever confronted again by a coyote, I will shoot him instantly without remorse.

I love telling libs like those that they live on a “clear cut”. The look on their faces when they realize they can’t refute that is priceless.

Best policy. If a coyote is willing to confront an adult human, it is clearly a danger to young children.

In the lower 50 wolves were hunted to extinction and if sub Sahara Africa went on a Lion hunt to wipe them out the way the wolf was wiped out you’d be the first to lament that. Carry a sidearm and forget about the wolf. The second amendment is a good thing.

f firearms had been originally developed in Africa, lions, cheetahs and leopards would be extinct and Africans

There is no shortage of firearms in Africa and they could easily wipe out the lion anytime they wanted to.

No, I would not.
This world is temporal.
Human souls are eternal.
If predators which prey on humans can survive in captivity fine. If not, then they must be removed to protect humans.

I think you missed that originally developed part. There was a time in the history of the world from ~1360 to the 1700s when firearms were exclusively or primarily European.

Of course there are plenty of firearms in Africa now. But there was a less politically correct time in world history when Europeans used firearms both on dangerous animals in Europe and tribesmen in Africa without a second thought.
