He believes that the argument of eating what one kills does not justify killing animals if the act itself does not bring joy.

“what if a carnivore uh sorry what if a cannibal used that excuse like well i you sir you killed that man well i i sure intend on eating them like does that does that excuse fly”

A hunter should strive to be compassionate by making clean, quick, and humane shots at the animals they hunt.

“my goal is to be a merciful hunter i practice all year so when i get that chance to make the shot it's a perfect shot it's through the lungs the animal goes instead in 10 seconds”

Managing to successfully retrieve game animals across property lines is a complex issue involving legal restrictions and landowner cooperation.

“states clarify, all states have clarified like what are what are you allowed to do? Some states you can just flat out go get it. Um there's a state where you can leave your gun behind and go fetch it. And there are states like the one I'm sitting in right now. You have no right or authority to go fe”

The pursuit of game animals requires a level of respect and recognition of their individuality that can make traditional hunting difficult to reconcile.

“And for me, this is just me, it took me stepping away from hunting to really soak into their world on their terms.”

Janis Putelis claims that hunting over bait is a legitimate and distinct method that should not be dismissed as unethical simply because it is perceived as easier than other forms of hunting.

“I just don't think that we we should look at it as it's um that it's exclusive of one another that just because one one version of hunting is easier that it's not proper hunting or not ethical hunting or not the right kind of hunting. It's just different.”

Hunting should be viewed as a shared experience where hunters support each other rather than shaming or judging others for their specific harvest.

“Our mission is to put an end to deer and buck shaming and make it okay to hunt, how you hunt, and for whatever you hunt for. It's not about the most miles hiked, the biggest buck, or the latest gear.”
