Steven Rinella is an outdoorsman, writer, and television personality known for translating the hunting lifestyle to a wide variety of audiences. He joins Chad Pagano on this weeks episode of The Wild Game Domain for a very forward thinking conversation about hunting, family, conservation and meat eating. Find out why Steven has no emotional response to killing a white tail deer yet feels sad after hunting bear. Hear about Steves mission to explain why somebody who loves wildlife so much can be an avid hunter, and why anti-hunting groups and lobbyists do very little in the department of wildlife conservation. This is not an episode to be missed for any hunter - amateur and pro alike. This program was sponsored by S. Wallace Edwards andamp; Sons. Todays break music was provided by Tom Cruz. I always have a feeling of sadness killing bears. When I kill a bear, theres a weird feeling of misplaced guilt and an extended sense of gratitude. [11:45] Its a safe assumption if youre following the laws in the US, youre behaving in a way thats good for wildlife. [14:45] For all the noise animal rights people make they dont contribute a dime to wildlife habitat or research. [15:10] How can you on one hand say you love wildlife and on the other hand hunt wildlife? Everything Ive written has been my way of trying to describe that.
