Wow a mosquito slaughter! Don't let PETA hear that! Like you guys have said, self-discipline and not indiscriminate killing is the key. Unfortunately there is far too much wantonness in any "sport" taking of wildlife. As a life long sportsman, I have never approved of using animals to prove my "manly skills". I eat what I kill and take no more than what I can eat in a timely fashion like you also.
Aside from "Sport" we have greed in the free-market that is causing severe depletion of many of our resources. As hobbyists we have an impact on the wildlife as well. We contribute to the demand that leads to these large-scale harvests that we decry as being inhuman and wrong. We further perpetuate the loss and or pollution of a species by allowing indiscriminate breeding or the release of non-indigenous species into the local environment. Like many pro-active fisherman and hunters, we too need to be aware of our impact on nature and need to police our own area of interests.
We need to stand up for what is right and correct in the hopes of doing so will help to decrease the loss of such a fragile environment.I am glad that there are many members here that share this viewpoint as well.
