HUNTER’S REBUTTAL TO PETA’S ANTI-HUNTING ARTICLE
https://www.livelovehunt.com/hunters-rebuttal-to-petas-anti-hunting-article/
Earlier this year peta2, PETA's youth division, released an article titled: What's Wrong With Hunting? Their answer… everything; as listed in eight detailed reasons why you should not support hunting. Live Love Hunt supports legal hunting, trapping, and fishing; here’s what we have to say about peta2/PETA’s article:
Before even beginning with the 8 bullet points, let's take a look at that opening sentence:
"Studies show that today, most hunters stalk and kill animals for the thrill of it, not out of necessity."
Studies? You're claiming that multiple studies have been conducted and all have the same conclusion to support this statement. Throughout your article you give quotes from conservation agencies and cite studies from universities; why not provide a link as to where you found evidence to support this leading statement? Because no such studies have ever been conducted; your article is not off to a good start!

Online PETA operatives use the same tactic: "Studies show" ...'I heard' ... 'Seems to me' ... I believe ...Etc, and then they never show the source because the source doesn't exist.
I liked this response the most from the above link:
3. peta2/PETA: Hunting is not a sport.
According to peta2/PETA, a sport is between two teams with a referee and hunters always have an unfair advantage. These animals live every minute of their lives listening and constantly watching for predators. A human hunter is no different than a furry predator; the end result is the same. If these animals aren't paying attention to every twig snap, every scent blowing through the wind, they will die. A deer’s sense of smell can be anywhere from 500 to 1,000 times more acute than humans and can see 5 times better than we do; a wolf's sense of smell is 100 times better than humans; and bears have been observed to travel up to 18 miles in a straight line to its desired food source!
Hunting with a gun is the 3rd safest sport when compared to 28 other popular sports; and has a lower injury rate than golf, volleyball, and tackle football. - National Shooting Sports Foundation
