My Opinion on Thoreau's Leaving Society for the Woods I believe that It was a good idea as he could see how you would react by yourself alone with nature and ‘god’. You can see whether or not your transcendentalism idea is truthful and valid, as well as whether or not you need to revise some of your ideas. I believe that leaving society can change your view on society and that you can see how nature works. I believe that it is a good idea and that you can learn quite a bit about nature.…

From your best friend to expert marksmen, everyone has their own opinion as to which caliber makes the perfect hunting round. However, the reality is that there is no one size fits all when it comes to hunting. Factors like the size of the animal being hunted, the distance the round needs to cover, and the velocity of the round all need to be taken into consideration before deciding which round is perfect for you. With that said, .30 caliber rounds are the most widely used hunting rounds…

When you are an avid hunter, you always need to be prepared. You need to make sure you have all the right equipment with you and that including the right hunting knife. When you are searching for the right hunting knives, there are a few things you need to consider. First, think about what size game you enjoy hunting the most. Do you hunt mostly small game such as birds and rabbits, or do you prefer the larger game such as deer and bear? If you enjoy hunting just for the sport and only hunt for…

The race between the sunrise and myself was underway. It was five in the morning and the sun was scheduled to rise at seven. There was a thirty minute drive in the way along with an hour of hiking. Not only would this be a close race; it would be one that could decide between me, and my first deer. I had been hunting for a couple of years, but have found nothing worthy of being my first harvest buck. If you shoot a young buck, there won't be any bigger ones in the upcoming harvest. With my rifle…

The rabbit hunt is a crucial part of maintaining Ha-lem, the Taos practice of balance and symbiosis between the individual, the community, and the environment (Lujan 32). However, due to the visitors’ distaste, the town of Taos shunts the practice by “[pouring] poison pellets near the big hotels and houses because they wanted no blood thirsty Savages around when [were] in abundance, or because they wanted to control everything” (Mirabal, Skeleton of a Bridge 59). As Whitt says, the tourists must…

Trophy hunting should be banned for many of the following reasons. You usually hunt for the oldest male or the one that is the head of the group.That leaves every other animal in the group fighting to restore order in the herd and trying to become the alpha male. Which could quite possibly never happen again. Plus it would also lead to many fights in the herd to go for the leading role. It should also be banned because the money from trophy hunting has no positive effect on conservation efforts…

What is the best wild hunter? Would you say wolves - a skilled group hunter? How about the peregrine falcon who is fast and agile, or maybe the killer whale known to be smart and resourceful? Actually the best wild hunter is the fox because it is sneaky, adaptable, yet adorable and ferocious. The fox species is a small predator from the canine family also know as vulpes scientifically. Foxes were made to sneak with their low to the ground body and long and skinny pads so they can sneak up on…

Do you think hunting controls animal population? Do you think it's just a way of life? Hunting is a cruel sport practised for leisure. Animals a living, they have families, they grow just like us. Why is murder a horrible thing when hunting isn't. Not only do hunters cause pain and suffering to the animals but many other animals and people involved in hunting accidents. Animals are not only hunted for sport but for fashion as well. I strongly believe hunting for fashion and sport should be…
