Lack of sympathy is a half-step away from lack of empathy... "feeling nothing" for those we hurt regardless of necessity... or the lesser of two evils.
Lack of sympathy is miles away from getting arousal out of death and pain.

There are two different worldview in this thread, and I doubt either one can comprehend the other.
Yeah, and I'm disappointed in myself every time I try.
Cause you're a psyco I believe is the argumentI'm curious what emotion I'm supposed to have when I kill a coyote, or any other animal. I'm supposed to be sad? Why would I do something that has only failure or sadness as options? I don't have any physical need to hunt, why would I do what can only end negatively?
Back before Walt Disney, nobody thought animals had families or plans for the future or worried about each other or agonized about being hurt. Nobody thought animals were people, because they aren't.
No, I hate it

A common practice around here for a few houndsmen is to run a coyote, adding enough fresh dogs at frequent intervals that the 'yote is finally caught by the dogs when it succumbs to exhaustion and the dogs rip the still alive coyote to pieces. It is an ugly sight and those that do it claim it is needed to reenforce the dogs desire to trail the 'yote
I have had bird-dogs all my life and have yet had any desire or seen any need to allow them to catch and disembowel a live bird on purpose. I truly believe those folks get some sort of sick thrill from the gore and screams from the unfortunate 'yote.
Sometimes we must kill for whatever reasons but why do so many hunters giggle and laugh when they kill something??
But there are many hunters (certainly not the majority of them) who either intentionally take a bad shot or miss the boiler room intentionally allowing coyote to scream in pain.
You and me both.I would like to hunt wherever leadcounsel envisions coyote hunting is done.
Hunting? Uh huh.
I suppose if driving up to a field, tajing out a $1500 scoped rifle, and blasting 20 coyotes with a big ole grin ... hardly a single fair or sporting chance now is it?
Far cry from using real hunting skills or values or killing only when necessary and not wasting any of your kill.
May as well breed dogs for alley fighting and call that a sport.
