Thats just WRONG right there. No kinda animal deserves to die like that. I'd like find whomever did that and play some Apache games on them. Just wrong!

You think fishing is unethical? Just a trot line for yotes. I know it's illegal to do, but I just think it's hilarious the double standards we have on how certain animals are killed. Some we can poison some we can't, some we can trap some we can't, some to shoot some we can't......


A trot line for coyotes? Give me a break. The fish don't hang in the air from their mouth until their neck breaks under their own weight or they suffocate. Also, fish don't have nerve endings in their mouths, so they don't feel that excruciating pain. Treble hooks for coyotes is a sick thing to do.

Your right fish are thrown on ice to either freeze or suffocate. or what about hooking a fish through its back and using as live bait, and trolling it behind the boat for hours. Poor little blue runner. Or what about the video posted on here a while back where folks were hunting yotes with wolf hounds, and the pack would catch a live yote and rip him limb from limb while still alive. Or heck even using catch hog dogs. What's humane and what's not? My point is the double standard folks have about the "right" way to kill things.
