Well! Shut my mouth! Time to get the Parker Hunter Bow out and go get an elk! You put a lot of work into this post. Quite impressive. I didn't know this at all. May you be filled with equanimity... but not pork.

I prefer elk the the best wild meat....I was given my first rifle at six years old, a little 22 for target practice we never hunted for sport, fished off the pacific coast for salmon too😋 I’m a redneck Buddhist ....
Living on a farm we learned about death up close and personal...no video games and extra lives.
It really is the best meat. If I had my choice I would only eat wild game. I started the "sacred hunt" back in my 20's. Honoring the life that was given to sustain life, etc. I am getting very sensitive to the cruelty we submit animals to that we consume. I don't eat pork any more for that reason. Well...perhaps one day I'll be a vegetarian. Perhaps.
Animals will live a life of birth and death no matter how we treat them. Not eating animals won't save them from preditors. I will not buy animals products from factory farms because factory farms are destorying our enviornment, are cruel to animals and their workers. Plus they are destroying what has supported humans for over 10,000 years our heritage livestock and seeds.
I don't hunt, never have except when I was very young and went hunting with my family, but I can skin and part out any animal, can or freeze their meat...up north there are not a lot of veggies if our food grid system breaks down. Keeping the old ways is important just in case...
I wish you the best on your spiritual journey warrior friend <3
Ditto! Indeed, I've been the warrior. Many times. Blessings.
