In today's society we've all become far to dependant on "the system", on supermarkets, far too complacent in the belief that food will always be in abundance and conveniently available just down the street and around the corner. We'd drifted away from feeling the need for any sort of survival or hunting skills whatsoever, and there are now millions upon millions of tree-hugging 'vegans', vegetarians, animal rights activists etc who sneer down their noses at anyone who hunts or supports hunting or consumes meat.
Tell me, how many of these vegans know about plant life and it's variations from region to region enough that they'd be able to survive in a holocast? I'm guessing very few. Which begs the question; How many of today's self-proclaimed vegans would jump back to eating meat inside of a week after supermarket shelves have been stripped bare and no one is sharing their salad?
I've done a fair amount of fishing in my time but I've never really taken to hunting. But I know one thing. Hunters aren't your enemy, they're your friend. In a long term survival situation doubly so.
