I know of one person who actually went and killed an elk at one of these farces.
He actually was not even gonna tell me about it as he knows I am a HUNTER. His wife though didn't quite understand what he did and blurted out if he had shown me the pictures of his elk 'hunt'. I saw the deer in the headlights look on his face when he said he hadn't. I asked him if he went to Colorado or some other state.
He then figured out he had to tell the truth which he (at least to me) did not act like he was to proud of.
His story(which I some what believe) went like this.........
His dad bought him, his brother and the dad a 'livestock kill'(he called it a 'H' word; which we all know is not correct).
He did say that it actually wasn't much of a 'hunt' as they basically drove around and picked out which one they wanted to kill based on how much money it was for the size of the antlers. He said he picked out a smaller one to save his dad some money but his brother picked out a nice big one.
He knew without me ever having talked about my opinion of canned killing that it was not something to be proud of!!!! Maybe around other people he talked differently but around me he truly seemed kind of embarrassed about it.

I know one other person that bought an elk from one of these elk farms. He is just getting into hunting thanks to me and he loves it. He did NOT however do the farce of going and killing it and trying to pass it off as anything else other than livestock. He had them kill it and butcher it just like a cow. He wanted elk meat and could not go on real hunt so he at least did not play make believe!!! This place sells the farce of livestock killing as 'hunting' big time but yet they can go out and kill and butcher an elk any time they want with no wait. It seems to me they can not be all that wild and hard to get if you can call them up one day and order what you want; then go pick it up packaged and ready to go within a day or two.

If people want to raise elk, deer or whatever and sell the meat just like a cow, pig or sheep I have no problem with that but there is a line that should not be crossed when you try to pass it off as anything other than what it is......livestock!!!!
