Finally, Lanham uses nature for hunting. When he describes the discrimination he is subject to due to his dark complexion he also reveals that one of his hobbies is hunting, as he explains, “I 'm the black hunter….I go hunting and people look suspiciously at the black guy wearing the camouflage ‘reserved’ for the good ol’ boys” (Lanham 83). If you hunt as a professor, it is very unlikely that you are doing so for need, but you are doing such things for recreational purposes, for the mere fun of it. In fact, killing deers that have never attacked you for sport expresses little interest for their well-being if not their lives. Because of this he is being anthropocentric, since he never mentions any thought of the consequences of his actions. While
He is not thinking at a higher intellect level to do so otherwise.
Throughout Jessica Walden’s writing in Chasing Loons, she argues that the locals in Rhineland, Wisconsin are careless and inconsiderate when it comes to sustaining the remaining population of the loons. She does this by explaining the condition in which the endangered birds, the loons, are living in. She describes the shores to be filled with beefy jerky wrappers and Mountain Dew cans, the trees to be filled with the loon’s natural predator, the eagle, and the slips of the docks surrounding the lakes to be littered with faded lifejackets and tackle. Walden writes about how the lakes that many of the birds live in are also inhabited by frequent lake goes who are not always courteous to the loons. Walden tells about one particular loon she finds

If the hunter gets too anxious, then he might scare the animal away, but there is a way to fix that. Many hunters wear ghillie suits. These suits will make the hunter blend in with his surroundings. However, they can be annoying and sometimes get in the way of the shot. Rifle Hunting
In The Most Dangerous Game, Richard Connell suggests that the hunter is not that different from the hunted when the big game hunter Rainsford becomes general Zaroff’s prey. Rainsford believes that hunting is a game because he doesn’t value the lives of the animals he hunts. When conversing with his hunting companion Whitney, Rainsford presents his view of the subject by stating that, ”You’re a big-game hunter, not a philosopher. Who cares how a jaguar feels?”(92). Contradicting his superior’s opinion, Whitney suggests that “they understand one thing—fear. The fear of pain and the fear of death.
Although, Ojito described her commitment to staying objective she failed towards her conclusion in Hunting Season by providing her own personal opinion and stating "what I think I do know is that Jeffrey Connor didn't set out to kill anybody that night" (Ojito, 2014, p. 223). However, Ojito provided sufficient information leads the reader to make his/her own personal interpretation including the note Jeff wrote at the end of the police report that stated, "killed by me" and the stab wound described as a "twist in the knife when it entered the body." Thus, ultimately, concluding that Jeff lacked "mens rea" when he committed the offense, appears to be bias and the final opinion should be left up to the reader. Another area, not discussed in more detail included the statement Mayor Pontrieri used as a scapegoat throughout Hunting Season. He said, immigration was above his pay range because it’s a federal issue.
In the states where it is legal, hunters take advantage of it. Using a rifle or bow is the favored way to go when hunting deer. Bow hunting requires more patience than hunting with a rifle. While bow hunting, you have to wait for the deer to come into your effective range. While rifle hunting, you can shoot at greater distances than with a
The Times Union Editorial Board warns Americans about the dangers of their actions in their article “We Must Step Up Efforts to Save Endangered Animals.” They adopt a frantic tone in order to make the reader worry about what they’re doing.

To begin with, The Times Union Editorial Board uses logos to prove how badly some animals are being affected. They start by analyzing how many wild animals have been lost.
Overall, he wants to believe he can protect everyone else’s innocence because he wasn’t able to protect his own
This uncaring for the feelings of others on his actions is somewhat unsettling. He doesn't think that his actions are wrong because he doesn't take into account anyone else’s feelings on the matter. This shield to his own wrong doing is what caused him and Daisy to have to leave Chicago as well. He had too many affairs or one affair got so out of hand that they had to leave to save face. Even though he has a mental block when it comes to his own wrong doings, he judges others fairly harshly.
Camille Fauque was a ghost who worked at night and piled up stones by day. A ghost who moved slowly, spoke little, and with a graceful shimmy made herself scarce. (19) In the international bestseller Hunting and Gathering, French Novelist Anna Gavalda (born on December 9th, 1970), dubbed as one of France’s biggest literary stars, returns with a print gateway to all things french and human in her third novel.

“When nature calls you, answer.” Ever since I was very young, nature has always called me to enjoy her peaceful benefits. Growing up on a lake, I was fortunate to be on the doorstep of so many sights and sounds of the wild. When I turned twelve, I experienced duck hunting for the first time. There is something so calming about listening to the birds chirping at first light and hearing the many voices of the eager wood ducks getting ready to fly.
