I never got into hunting pets for athletic activity, as I truly was impacted when I shot a bird when I was younger.
I felt so guilty for shooting the bird in the tree with my bb gun that I threw my bb gun in the lake that afternoon never to use it again.
I did some fishing when I was younger with my Grandpa, and truly liked to eat fish, so for me that was more palatable than shooting birds for fun. Some people think you shouldn’t kill and eat fish, despite the fact that I feel that it is okay to do. Whole home air purification in my gramps house was needed when my friend and I would fish because the aroma made the indoor air quality truly disappointing in the house. One time my friend and I caught 72 watermelon bass in a three hour stage with my brother and gramps and I. My friend and I took all of them home and cleaned them near the weather conditions control system outside and then bagged them all in water and froze them in the freezer that is near the UV air purifier. My friend and I ate those fish for the next six months or so and truly loved our fried fish breakfasts at my gramps lakehouse that overlooked the bay my friend and I lived on. My gramps ran a local company and lived in that lakehouse till he died, which was then sold and never to be seen again. That house is just a memory now, but all of those memories of my Grandparents will live in my mind for as long as I am alive.
