Duck, Duck,-Goose-Kite?!!

Goose Kite?? Can you tell which goose is really a kite?? Silly goose, that's not a goose- it's a kite- And the Kite just might not be So silly- as it has become Hunter Equipment- The Goose Kite also functions as a decoy- I am going to have to disagree with this particular tactic  & point out that a good hunter should not have to coax a flock of  geese with a kite, in the first place-And of course it raises all kinds of ethical questions-I mean, whats up with how certain states do not allow the use of salt blocks to lure deer- Or even more importantly in the case of birds, the implications of the Migratory Species Act-.. And how this pertains to the defined "wild game" animal.  More on this in the posts to come.

I should also note that I'm not disagreeing with hunting deers-I mean I could not do it myself personally, but I recognize humans were hunters among many things through out evolutionary development- In fact I would go as far to point out,hunting deer compared to industrial (American)cattle farm operations-  I mean, its hard to sure putting the cattle out of their misery vs. taking a animal making its living in the wild- its a tough one- Honestly, I have to reflect long,hard, and often on this bizarre juxtaposition of culture within our developed society (here in America).
