I used to know a vegan "hunter". His buddies would bring guns and he'd bring a camera. His idea of getting a "kill" was getting an incredible wildlife photo. I always respected that.
My cousin does that!
He's not vegan, just doesn't see the point in yet another family member taking game when there's enough to go around already. We vibe like that, me and him, but I never had good cameras when I tried it lol.
He's gotten old enough that he's not doing it as often, but he usually goes out whenever one of the younger generation go on their first trip.
He's a film only photog though. He does it for pleasure, and enjoys the entire process too much to go digital.
Don't suppose he lives in central PA?
Nah, we're all southerners
Not vegan but this is also how I "hunt.". It pairs very well with my love of the outdoors.
It's like they heard the term Hunter Gatherer's and thought I hate hunting so much I'm going to deliberately ignore the other part.
Hunter Gatherer's
Hunter Gatherer's what?
Hunter Gatherer's food. Keep your mits off it.
It’s vegan foraging, it’s different! Ughh, you just don’t understand!
/s
EDIT: For those who downvoted my joke; I would be very interested in why!
Carnists wouldn’t understand. ~also~ ~/s~
That mushroom in the center'll make a mighty fine trophy, tell ya what.
hey, collecting mushrooms is fun unlike hunting
okay so a great YouTube channel is a gatherer very seriously stalking and pouncing on plants that they gather, like Calvin hunting the box of cereal.
Not gonna lie, I'd watch that. Seems like it would be hilarious.
I feel like if they took it super seriously and made weekly 1 minute videos, they'd amass a pretty solid following.
Yeah. imagine if they had done it when Vine was still a thing. That would also have been hilarious.
Mushrooms and Hunting can't simultaneously exist within my consciousness without causing me to recall this
Facepalm
Anything that makes you apply your hand to your face.
