Heh.....

It's not hard to find specific examples of people hunting in "wrong" ways, regardless of what tools they use. I wasn't arguing that using guns, camo, trackers etc was wrong... only that those making certain claims were being two-faced.
And yes, I've heard the same comments about some of the tools now used for hound-hunting. They are usually made when some young bloke treats it like a video-game and misses a deer because he was too busy looking at his screen. You don't hear them so much when it comes to recovering the hounds.
I can easily see both sides of that particular coin.

There will always be such debates, a lot of them being based on personal preference. My point was always that personal preference does not translate into moral absolutes, unless you think that you are God. (In which case, we have the absolute right to laugh at and deride you.)

Yes.... animals do adapt. If they are repeatedly ambushed from cover, they spend more time I the open. If they are shot in the open, they become allergic to open spaces.
