Killing animals

[steve dave]

The pigs were domestic, raised by our neighbor down the road.  I shot them once in the head and then stuck them with a long knife down through the neck and into their heart causing them to bleed out very fast.  It takes less than 10 secs.  Then we hang the animal by it's hind legs and wash it off thoroughly with soap and water.  We skin it, gut it, quarter it, and then place it in a freezer.  Wash rinse repeat. 

We don't kill the cows anymore, just take them to the local locker to have them killed and aged for 5 days in their freezer.  When I was little we used to kill the beef in the dead of winter and hang them in the shed because we didn't have a large walk in freezer.  Later in the week we made a big fire to heat a huge vat of water to scald the pigs (after killing them) so we could scrape the hair off and save the skins to sell to the locker along with the cow hides.  We also rendered the pig lard for cooking so there's that too.  I don't miss those days.

I agree; I prefer to completely ignore how my food gets to the table.

the new SOC guy, joe teti, on dual survivor did the knife to neck thing to a feral pig during the hawaii episode.  was pretty elite.  no gun required.

My dad won't kill animals anymore because he says he's too old and it weighs on his mind too much.  The duty fell on my shoulders when no one else would do it. I didn't think it was that big of a deal but sometimes when I'm by myself I think about it. 

To make amends I also volunteer to be the bunghole remover.  That entails cutting around the sphincter and pulling it out just far enough to tie it off with a piece of string then stuff it back down the hole.

To make amends to the pig you shot and stabbed you eff around with its bad person?

Yeah, maybe to make amends, you should feed them better while they are alive or something.  Seems like your plan just gives you two things to worry yourself about.

I take it as the pig getting the last laugh.  Gas usually belches out into my face while I'm performing the delicate procedure.

"Murdered" is roughly equivalent to "face farted in" in my book too.  I bet the pig is LOLing his ass off up in pig heaven.

If I ran into a group of plastic people that weren't moving and some creature was faking a human's voice to get me to get closer and I got my brains blown out I would say I'm pretty dumb and would be surprised I hadn't died sooner.

If you happen to be delicious, it's win/win.

ben ji's experience killing animals-


1 time when I was fishing I caught a large bass(Around 4lbs) but it was hooked in the gills and bleeding like crazy. Released it back in the water but about 5 minutes later it came floating back up.

Use to spend a couple of weeks each summer on the grandparents farm in western ks. I would usually spend half the day walking around the farm with a .22 shooting rabbits. We would feed the dead rabbits to the pigs.

question: if you are going to buy something that elaborate and seemingly highly engineered to shoot an arrow (?) at an animal why don't you just shoot a gun or laser or missile from a remote controlled drone?

[CNS]

Not as complicated as it appears
