[Jacob-list] Attention Jacob Breeders!!!!!!!!!!!

[Thomas P. Carnes]

Agreed. I have been talking about this for the last couple of weeks. I am in Texas, but we don't even let people hunt our deer, let alone our livestock. If you care, you need to ask what they want them for.   If you think it is no worse than selling them for meat, then you have never shot a deer and watched it run several hundred yards -- or worse. I do not believe this is limited to Texas though. I think you will find similar websites wherever there are "exotic" game ranches. I would suspect they have the same issue in colorado, wyoming, montana, and idaho -- at least. If you don't have a problem with it, as I have said before, that is fine. We all have our politics. But, if you do care, you should be aware of this and ask. They pay 850 to kill a jacob. That seems really silly to me.

I was looking for Jacob paintings on Ebay and I came across the ebay auction below.  Seems that in TX they breed Jacobs to hunt.
Now, I know that some people might think this is OK but to me this is not hunting, this is a joke.  It is very sad
