ruffcountry Report post Posted September 6, 2006 Hunter my a$$. What a misnomer, he was a big anti-hunter. Quote: [sCIENTIFIC AMERICAN: Do you think sustainable use might be an advantage for certain regions of the world? I know of someone who was working in Zimbabwe 10 years ago, and he thought that the only way to get the villagers to not want to kill the elephants was to allow them to harvest ivory in a sustainable way. STEVE: I believe sustainable use is the greatest propaganda in wildlife conservation at the moment. This propaganda has been established by some very credible, very powerful players, and it seems to me that people are using the camouflage of science to make money out of animals. There are people currently saying that they're whaling for scientific purposes. That is just . . . if I think about it too long I'll cry, mate, because I've seen it and it's not working and it's a lie. So, whenever they're killing our animals and calling it sustainable use, I'll fight it because this is just my own personal opinion. ] His wife terry is from Oregon , where she helped get the cougar anti-hunting bills passed. Steve worked hard at stopping hunting all over the world , recently stopping the Australian govts plan to allow crocodile hunting in northern Australia. Condolences to his kids.

ruffcountry Report post Posted September 13, 2006 Hey AG didnt mean to sound like I was directing that at you. Its just that when I used to watch his show(he was entertaining) I was always aggravated by the fact that he called himself a hunter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ruffcountry Report post Posted October 9, 2006 looks like we have a special visitor among us tonight. I think I ruffled his feathers . Personal Message bodybags Hunter????, Today, 10:33 PM Newbie Group: Members Posts: 0 Member No.: 1490 Joined: Today, 10:09 PM I just read your msg regarding Steve and his passing...How dare you say anything about him being a hunter...You call yourself a hunter im sure as you drive up to the woods in your camper trailer, with your gun or your special bow carrying you GPS tracker with your $200 backpack strapped to your back..How dare you call yourself a hunter, your an animal killer..Indians were hunters not you so you should be more respectful of the dead and think things through before you start questioning what a hunter is Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
