I don't see how this is anything but cruel if they were tied down just to be shot at with arrows. Hunting is hunting- to search for it or something. How can this be classified as 'sport'. It was just shooting arrows at live, tethered animals. It is not even to the same 'sport' level as those pigeon shoots that everyone griped about. At least the pigeons were let out to try to fly.
They need to fight it because if not they should pay big fines.
What a bunch of jerks. And just for posterity, my family was a hunting family. My dad did and does have all kinds of guns. We were taught to shoot. But we were also taught respect for guns and for hunting. As an adult I don't hunt because except for being too lazy we would all be vegetarians, or nearly so, as it is healthier all round but it places alot of burden on us to have a good variety of menus. Again-that is just laziness. But this was just stupid and cruel. .
