Hunting would appear to be an essential feature of the natural world. Many animals hunt each other, and many humans hunt animals. Prehistoric man hunted to survive. Today, of course, hunting is not a necessary activity, but a sport and avocation. Those who hunt always have the choice to buy vegetables or frozen pizza at the grocery store. In this episode of BaerTalk Bracy Hill and Jeremy Stirm talk about what hunting means for them. Both defend hunting and find meaning in it. They also talk thoughtfully about it, about our relationship to the animal world, and our responsibilities toward nature.
