A deer shot through the vitals with a bow dies in less than a minute in most cases. Humans kill far more quickly than almost any natural death that an animal will meet.


As for all the other arguments springing up, it gets tiresome, as a hunter, listening to people with no experience talking about things they know nothing about. If you exist on this earth, other animals die for it. Even if you're a vegetarian, you take up space, and your veggies fields take up space. Things die because of it. Being further removed from the death that you cause doesn't make you better. It just means you're afraid to see the cost of your existence.
