Hello from Scotland~
I have heard of game ranching in America, particulary African species....... Now call me a hypocrite, well who is'nt ! But i do have some ethical problems with this hunting of non-native species.
In Britain we have non-native Deer species which are hunted and i have no problem with this (hypocrite ?)
as they are completely wild they are not enclosed or bred for hunting. They are classed as wild, they belong to no one "until they are on your land" and nothing is done to prevent free movement over any distance.
There are certain Deer parks here that can offer huge park bred deer, basically enclosed within a large walled/fenced park........ Im sorry but to me that's not really cricket !
Personally i would have NO satisfaction looking up at such a trophy
Now i believe i have made my feeling on enclosed land hunting very clear !
I admit my knowledge of Game ranches is very limted, but the idea of hunting non-native species such as zebra which were not "feral". but rather enclosed albeit on thousands of acres still gives my personal "ethical bone" trouble.
Im not condeming those who do, its a personal choice and i have no problem with that, its your right and should be.
So tell me how wrong i am ! Tell me more of how game ranches in the states work ? What wonderful species can be hunted
