Talk about your polarized body! This is all about modern man(urban man with lost connection to true nature, has a fantasy ideal of what nature really is), and natural man(still connected to the soil, and still recognizes natural reality). The two are not compatible and are not likely to belong to the same social club. The former has an exaggerated moral component that decries hunting and killing game, but easily buys packaged meat in the supermarket(remote kill of game), in fact depends on this system. The natural man buys meat in the supermarket and also keeps his skills for hunting and fishing, can clean and butcher a kill and eat it. It simply depends on who is doing your killing. Some guys like to kill their own game. Some can't or won't do it and pay others to do it for them. I will take a pass for a vegetarian, otherwise you omnivores that buy your kill in packages, get real. The guys that took the bear are likely also deer hunters or duck hunters that take game and consume them. For sure bears are not good eating and leaving the carcass in the forest to be eaten by other meateaters doesn't sound like it was a wasteful or irresponsible kill. To a natural man, a bear as big as Bruno in the picture would be a once-in-a-lifetime trophy well worth taking. Surely a bear that large was a dominant male and had his way with the ladies many times, ensuring his progeny will carry on in the big woods. Sometimes you eat the bear; sometimes the bear eats you.
