  Agreed.  I honestly don't understand why Mikey doesn't insist
  that each hunting party include a champion calf roper...that
  way they could simply lasso the wild and vicious beast so
  the hunter could triumphantly walk up to it and dispatch it
  with aplomb by putting the gun right next to the creature's
  head.  This would avoid all of my concerns about wacky hunters
  strafing the surrounding scenery with lead.  

  Better still, why not have the DF&G simply trap the mankilling
  ferocious beasts and tie them up on a closed firing range for
  the "sporting hunters".

   Most folks with severe needs to express their male heritage
   in such senseless slaughter, have very very little male identity
   to express in the first place.  If they did, they could probably
   find other things to do weekends with members of the appropriate
   sex.
