So you bait an area to attract deer. You don't hunt the deer, you kill semi-tame deer who have unfortunately come to trust you. Wow. I am so impressed. At least I hope you kill them to eat them, and that they are killed in a very humane way. Not sent off wounded in agony for nearly 2 days.

Yes, I hunt. With my camera and telephoto lens. I have captured some remarkable pictures of many beautiful animals--mulies, whitetails, black bear, elk, marmots, pikas, bison, dozens of species of birds, reptiles, wild canids, etc. I don't bait them, I stalk them patiently until I get a great picture. Perhaps I am more of a hunter than the bait and shoot crowd.

So who lives a better life? These deer or cattle that are penned up in feedlots?

Ranching and hunting change from one to another in degree. It is not a sharp and distinct line.

I have even had to “hunt” semi-tame chickens that refused to be caught when the time came to slaughter them.

Perhaps you are a vegan.
