Hunter007 Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 Kayaking down in Florida and saw a manatee almost under my boat . This one is easily over 1000 pounds . So would you hunt that if it was legal ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pygmy Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 Reminds me of story....Some of you oldtimers on here might remember it, because I think I told it before, but it has been a few years.. An old woodsman in Northern Oregon was arrested for shooting a spotted owl... The arresting officer asked him why he shot it.. He replied " Because I was hungry, and it was in the middle of the winter and I had no meat..I ate it" THe officer considered the fact that the old man was living a subsitence lifestyle, and decided to let him off with just a warning.. Before he left, the officer asked the old guy " What does spotted owl taste like ??" The old guy replied.... " I would rate it somewhere between bald eagle and whooping crane..."...... 3 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dbHunterNY Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 that'd be the most boring hunt there ever was. let alone idk how you recover it in any easy way. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pygmy Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 Kind of like a muskox hunt....The only hard parts are GETTING THERE.....putting up with the SUB ZERO WEATHER....and paying many THOUSANDS of dollars to do it..Not to mention spending a few nights in an igloo with Inuits who haven't had a bath in six months...Basically you just drive your snow machine or dogsled up to the critters and shoot them when they form a defensive circle.....I have read that they are VERY tasty, however....

Nomad Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 Well If it was legal that would mean the numbers of them would be high enough to allow hunting , no ? So,what’s the big deal then ? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pygmy Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 Hey...If they were abundant, legal and tasted like king crab legs, I might consider harpooning one, as long as I had a dozen Cubans to retrieve, butcher and process it for me !! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hunter007 Posted October 29, 2019 Author Share Posted October 29, 2019 If I new they tasted like lobster or a sirloin steak . And they where not endangered and legal to hunt.
