trappa 518 Posted April 12, 2010 Report Share Posted April 12, 2010 since when have mink been protected? They get the same protection as the grey squirrel under the invasive species act don't they? There protected under the hunting with dogs act just about everything is protected from hunting with dogs thanks to labour. Mink are still on the "wanted" list due to being an invasive species.

mushroom 13,268 Posted April 26, 2010 Report Share Posted April 26, 2010 The American Indian was the original ethical hunter in Pennsylvania. Game was a total way of life and he treasured it because his very existence depended on it. His hunting skills brought not only food but skins for clothing, hides for shelter, sinew for sewing, claws for decoration and a use for most of his quarry. The Indian used the total animal but more than that, he took only what he needed, took it only when he needed it, and recognized that his future existence and that of his descendents depended on a continuing supply of game. He had a reverence for animals and was a total ethical hunter, proud of his skill but bound to use it only for a proper objective -- survival. sums it up nicely i think Before The Indians had horses ,they used to stampede buffalo over cliffs,I should think this is not only indiscriminate ,and wasteful ,but unreconcilable with your statement. What do you mean before they had horses? They existed over there long before the white man arrived so I doubt they would have ever been without horses. It wouldn't have been recorded either just word of mouth which wouldn't have lasted long, are you sure? honestly want to know where you got this Horses were introduced into the Americas by white men from the 15th century onwards AKA "The Spaniards" their horses were the first in South, Central and North America. The wild mustangs of the America's are the decendants of these horses. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
