As a by the way:

When I was about 18 I hunted a family of raccoons for a farmer. I killed the mom, dad and three young. I realized I enjoyed it, and I have never hunted like that again. I have since put a few animals out of their misery and occasionally hunted for food to feed myself or others who couldn't feed themseklves--but never again for the "thrill" of the hunt. Killing is and should be serious business. No more and no less, because it is a great responsibility to be the judge and jury and executioner. I did not have the wisdom for that at 18, and I do not have it at the age of 57.
