I used to be a hater for hunting.
I still don't approve of trophy hunting, at all..
I used to take for granted having the money to be able to go to the store and purchase whatever I wanted to eat or cook.
But in the last couple of years I know why people hunt for food. When you don't HAVE the money to run to the store and buy meat, and other food for your family, what do you do?
When you live in the country, you hunt.
Deer may be a strong meat, but you eat it and learn to like it when there's nothing else.
Many people here eat black bear for the same reason.
I eat chicken, turkey, pork, beef, venison, and fish frequently. One deer can feed several families!
My brother in law hunts, cleans, and takes the deer to a processor, and comes home with enough meat and sausage to feed my family of 6, his family of 5, and my brother's family of 3.
So I became a believer in hunting for meat strictly.
I have also tried bear, bullfrog, aligator, squid, rabbit, and lamb, and find them all delicious except for squid. XD
But I draw the line on companion animals. I would never try dog, just because. I wouldn't even try goat, as I had a special one in my life<3
