I just kill stuff when I have to. And my hunter friends give me meat. I give away fish on occasion but I really don''t take it seriously. Fishing is more fun than food.

Sounds like most of you guys are culling a very massive herd by the thousands, be it bunnies or others.

We have a lot of feral animals here mate, in fact if it wasn't for the introduced animals hunting would be pretty boring. There's really not much sport in shooting kangaroos and it is part of our coat of arms, so we don't shoot them unless they happen to be in plague proportions which happens at times.
If it's not wood and blued steel, it's not one of mine
