It's a bit long, & at times a little in-depth with human history, but if you stick with it, I thought it was a really fantastic read. http://www.motherearthnews.com/natu...campaign=HE&utm_source=iPost&utm_medium=email
Good article and I really like this quote... "True hunters, past and present, no matter our differences in geography, culture, gender and experience, are kindred spirits, a scattered tribe united by our shared love......" I also found this interesting: "And so the human urge to hunt, which feels so much like instinct, almost certainly is instinct, springing from the deepest primitive core of our racial memory. And the flip side of this same coin — something that few modern people seem to grasp — is that a complementary instinctive “need” to be hunted is built into such dedicated prey species as elk, deer and antelope. Without the continuation of the precise sort of physical and intellectual exercise provided by predation and evasion, our spectacular prey species, so beautifully sculpted by the artful knife of natural selection, would soon devolve into mere meager shadows of themselves, as pampered park and suburban deer are even now becoming in many parts of North America."
Glad to see a few guys read it. Seems a lot more relevant than 90% of the stuff normally posted around here.
Very thought provoking, I like it, thanks for posting. --- I am here: http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=39.377645,-84.563492 Sent from my iPod touch using Tapatalk
