I started looking around for ideas to satisfy Fandango’s One Word Challenge (FOWC) for today, hunter, and could not believe my luck. This story from just a few hours ago: https://eu.statesmanjournal.com/story/news/2020/08/30/hillsboro-archery-hunter-killed-charging-elk-outside-tillamook/5677037002/. Actually, this type of story seems very novel from here in the UK, but I hear them from the US a few times a year, so perhaps not so uncommon as I first thought?
I’m sorry, there is some swearing today – part of this is undoubtedly my lack of vocabulary, but some of it accurately represents my feeling toward hunting. I hope you’ll forgive me just this once.
I was just out for a stroll, just trying to mind my own,
When some bastard shot an arrow in my ass,
So I turned on him, pursued him,
Caught him and subdued him,
Now I’ve put that little fucker out to grass.
Love it. Love those swear words!

Man bites dog. Sort of – hunter gets killed by elk. In Oregon, posted just a few hours ago. I suspect this is a local rag.

Yeah, anything injured must not last long in the wild anyway, but it does make me wonder why humans can’t just leave things alone.

That;s limerick level funny right there nice one. I agree to hunters who kill for sport should be charged with murder.

Yes indeed, I notice a few returning trends in the prompts and where they lead.

The hunter got what he deserved, in my opinion.

Absolutely. It’s a shame the elk died too, but at least one less hunter for the rest to worry about.
