Nenek moyang manusia dan rakyat yang hidup dipedesaan di banyak negeri berburu bukan untuk hobby atau yang dijulukan "sport", tetapi untuk mengisi perut mereka.

Kenapa? Para peserta sport atau game tentunya saling mengerti aturan dan karena saling mengerti aturan. ya aturan yang telah disepakati bersama. Kemudian ada angka perolehan atau skor untuk menentukan kalah dan menangnya. Dalam perburuan binatang, apakah binatangnya mengerti aturan main? Apakah hasil pertandingan bisa dibatalkan? Bagaimana membatalkan peluru yang sudah telanjur menjebol jantung? Hhh, ini benar - benar sebuah penindasan. Beraninya sama binatang. Senjatanya aja yang besar, nyalinya kecil BIG GUN LITTLE DICK. Kalau berani dan mau benar - benar dikatakn olahraga, sana bikin aturan saling memburu atau saling menembak sesama manusia. Ini benar - benar hiburan gila untuk orang - orang sakit jiwa. SICK ENTERTAINMENT FOR SICK MINDS. Ya, orang - orang yang hobinya berburu binatang itu adalah orang - orangyang tidak bernyali dan sakit jiwa. Saran saya: daripada menghamburkan uang untuk membeli senapan mewah, peluru mahal dan mobil yang murah, mendingan duitnya dipakai untuk mendukung upay a- upaya konservasi alam.

Photo: AP May 26, 2007 - 11:30AM An 11-year-old boy used a pistol to kill a wild hog his father says weighed 476 kilograms and measured 2.74 metres, from the tip of its snout to the base of its tail. Think hams as big as car tyres. If the claims are accurate, Jamison Stone's trophy boar would be bigger than Hogzilla, the famed wild hog that grew to seemingly mythical proportions after being killed in south Georgia in 2004. Hogzilla originally was thought to weigh 453.6 kilograms and measure 3.6 metres long. National Geographic experts who unearthed its remains believe the animal actually weighed about 362.8 kilograms and was 2.4 metres long. Regardless of the comparison, Jamison is revelling in the attention over his pig. "It feels really good," Jamison said. "It's a good accomplishment. I probably won't ever kill anything else that big." Jamison, who killed his first deer at age five, was hunting with father Mike Stone and two guides in east Alabama on May 3. He said he shot the huge animal eight times with a .50-calibre revolver and chased it for three hours through hilly woods before finishing it off with a point-blank shot. Through it all, there was the fear that the animal would turn and charge them, as wild boars have a reputation for doing. "I was a little bit scared, a little bit excited," said Jamison. His father said that, just to be extra safe, he and the guides had high-powered rifles aimed and ready to fire in case the beast, with 12-centimetre tusks, decided to charge. Trees had to be cut down and a backhoe brought in to bring Jamison's prize out of the woods. It was hauled on a truck to the Clay County Farmers Exchange, where Jeff Kinder said they used his scale, recently calibrated, to weigh the hog. Mike Stone said the scale balanced one notch past the 476 kilogram mark. "It probably weighed 1060 pounds. We were just afraid to change it once the story was out," he said. The hog's head is being mounted by Jerry Cunningham of Jerry's Taxidermy. Cunningham said the animal measured 137.16 centimetres around the head, 187.9 centimetres around the shoulders and 27.9 centimetres from the eyes to the end of its snout. "It's huge," he said. "It's just the biggest thing I've ever seen." Mike Stone is having sausage made from the rest of the animal. "We'll probably get 500 to 700 pounds (317.5 kilograms)," he said. Jamison, meanwhile, has been offered a small part in The Legend of Hogzilla, a small-time horror flick based on the tale of the Georgia boar. The movie is holding casting calls with plans to begin filming in Georgia. - AP ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ No virus found in this incoming message.
