Holy fuck. Are you guys OK over there? Even 3rd worlders live better than this.

Are people actually following those rules though? I don't hunt but the rules seem absurdly convoluted and I assume most just hunt whatever they can find and try not to get caught.

In every single third world shithole I've been to (Greece, Brazil, Turkey, China, Morocco, Egypt South Africa and India) the nature is filled to the brim with plastic and "people" can't even comprehend why it's bad to destroy nature. The chain of thought is basically : nature is something I can scam (litter and steal from) without repercussions so why not ? It's sad cause a lot of countries in the list have potential for being beautiful but they are just landfills

if you actually traveled out more then you'll truly appreciate the wildlife of USA and Canada
only places that are comparable is the Nordic nations because it's desolate and they care about nature just like we do

Hold on, brownoids think you should just be able to kill any wild animals you want to at anytime? Ending colonization was a mistake.

this is not true in rural areas. Half of the elk harvested in Montana each year (~14,000) is done so on private land...and my fishing licence costs $5...and the ALL the money from hunting licenses goes to conservation/habitat restoration...

>Americans have to pay to hunt
A license in my state is $25. A fishing license is $5. Fishing is better for bulk harvesting if it really is a sustenance issue.
>Have to wait for permission to hunt on public land
Not where I live. The map is public. Some places are open year round for everything. Some places are leased private for turkey season specifically for example.
>Arbitrary limits and restrictions
Those aren’t arbitrary (except in a few blue states). It’s usually decided by biologists who take population surveys.
>Has a literal hunting/fishing police force
Yes. This is good. The downside is having a bunch of cops with absolutely nothing to do so they become de facto safety patrollers issuing tickets for life jackets and shit. The upside is faggots that poach going to jail. I’ll make that trade every fucking time.
>Cant hunt in your backyard
Really depends on what your house is zoned for. I’ve shot deer off my back porch before.
>3rd worlders live better than this
My wife is from the 3rd world. They fish with dynamite and blow up the whole reef. I’ll take a hard pass.

It's to cut down on overhunting or fishing and to preserve the ecosystems but also since stop homeless or poor people from getting food where they shouldnt.

>>americans have to pay to hunt and fish for sustenance
Even shitholes like Brazil have hunting and fishing licenses and many states offer deeply discounted or free licenses for people who are either poor or in the middle of nowhere. Resident tags tend to also be incredibly cheap.>>have to wait for permission to hunt on public land
Depends on what you're hunting and where.>>have arbitrary limits and restrictions placed on hunting
And when those restrictions didn't exist several species were driven extinct, extirpated locally, or driven to the verge of extinction. I don't get to hunt buffalo or passenger pigeons or go see colonies of Carolina Parakeets in the wild because my forebears assumed that god wouldn't let animals go extinct and weren't overly concerned about it in any case.>>has a literal hunting/fishing police force to tell you what you can and can't do
Even sub-saharan Africa has forest jannies.>>can't hunt wild animals in their own backyard or neighborhood (even with bows)
Depends entirely on context. I know several people whose preferred method of hunting was to just sit on their porch with a rifle and wait for an elk to cross their front yard.

There are limitations on hunting and fishing because if there weren't, then subhumans like you would kill fucking everything and leave nothing for anyone else (probably while dumping trash into the water).

The problem with having natural resources is that they must be managed, or no one will be able to enjoy them.
Sorry/ Not Sorry about our lack of Utopian ideals; you may now leave to go build your own.
As you've noticed, we're not averse to occasional sharing but will not be dictated to or taken advantage of, and we have the means to enforce that.

I love my area of Appalachia. I bought 10 acres with a 2,000 sq foot house at a very reasonable price. My property is in an area that is mostly national forest and for that reason is very lightly populated. A 200 acre state wildlife sanctuary borders my western property line. Appalachia has a moderate climate, lush vegetation, abundant sunshine and rainfall. We have strong storms that bring heavy rain that quickly pass leading to sunny days. These strong passing storms provide us ample rain while allowing a high percentage of sun during the day. Portions of Appalachia are designated as temperate rain forest.
Appalachia has a tremendous amount of freshwater streams and rivers enabling an abundance of fish and wildlife, including large game such as white tail deer, feral pigs and black bears.
Appalachia also has a rugged, independent, even rebellious population. Appalachia's rugged terrain, moderate climate, abundant fresh water and game make it a perfect area for the guerrilla war fighter.
There are many reasons that US Army Green Berets and Rangers retire to Appalachia. It is a place that calls people steeped in guerrilla warfare home.

The conservation system works pretty well a lot of the time, it's usually when people think it's a good idea to reintroduce an apex predator like wolves that we start having problems develop since humans already supplanted that management role.

Maybe if some new planet gets terraformed there will be so much wildlife hunting and fishing will be no problem for a long while. Not in my lifetime though.

Most places worth living are heavily populated. If everyone there set snares, cut trees, poached and built as they see fit those places would be run down desolate wastelands in no time.
Areas where this is not the case geblnerally suck, hence they are sparsely populated, and people living there are often living /out/ which is not as desireable as some may think.

the alternative is what fish and wildlife does raising farm fish in a pit of water feeding them doggy treats
sending a message out that X lake will be filled in the next week
then mass dumping a thousand in the pool while hungry fisherman wait
who then use doggy pellet type bait and pull in their 5 limit within an hour because the dumb fish weren't raised in any environment to know better
>hunting
if people wanted to fix hunting they'd allow us to turn off the disney movie and kill cougars with dogs and traps again
those fuckers have a hunting license to harvest 54 deer a year
my state ranks highest in the nation at 6000 which translates to 324,000 deer carcasses a year whereas hunters are harvesting 30,000-42,000 a year. So the human to cougar kill rate is nearly 10x.
best part is humans are combat hunting with each other when there's a much bigger problem.
and more recently my state has added wolves to the mix as well
oh and cougar population was less than 2000 in the 1980s so its definitely retarded lawmakers giving these animals a rampage right of way
so in a way OP has a point despite coming from a different point of view.
fuck cougars.
