What alot of people dont know is that animals are raised on farms for fur.
The meat is your meatby oroducts in cat and dog food. The oils are used in candle making and as shoepolish. Ecery part of the animal is used. The bones are out into oet dood as bone meal and in gardening supplies also. Beaver is one of the few animals used that is trapped. If they weret trapped, the damsthey build would stop up water flow to rivers and streams. There is a reason for every season.

Unfortunately, I don't think so. My husband used to work with a woman who thought this - he hunts, and she said almost the same thing to him. Why do you have to hunt, when you could buy the meat in the grocery store and no animals get harmed? This is the same woman who was satisfied that she would never get the swine flu because she doesn't eat pork.

RIGHT!! and I am sure this same person thinks that milk just comes from the store or if they do really know that milk comes from a cow, that chocolate milk comes from a chocolate cow. And to think that these people reproduce and will be taking care of some of us one day-shudder the thought - I taught school for 20 plus years and the last 19 taught 1st grade. I hope that I taught my students enough to know better than this and that none of my students are that far gone!!

as a child I was raise by my grandparents. Granddad hunted and we ate what he shot-or didn't eat!. Simple-
When we had more money and my mother would go to the store I would complain because I didn't want the store bought stuff-I wanted the "real" thing from the farms and road stands. LOL I am old-so this was a long time ago.
Funny how life and time changes you. I still like "real" bacon and farm eggs-corn from stands. I was so spoiled when I lived in Australia with the organic farms-Nothing in the US taste like the King Island beef, cheeses, and Tazzie wines! And fresh veggies were fabulous!!
