Rickshaw swami 3,919 Posted November 21, 2020 Report Share Posted November 21, 2020 I have semi wild foxes who live on my property.I generally leave them alone and they stay out of sight.This morning was first day of rifle deer season here so I stayed home as I didn't wanna get shot! Every time a rifle fires in the distance a fox screams and the terriers go nuts and I holler Shut up.So much for a peaceful morning at home.Wild animals are meant to be wild and I have had my share of them.In my opinion this includes house cats too lol.The look DC spoke of we call broken spirits in Dixie. As far as the respect is it different levels of respect for different animals?The quarry I have the highest respect for someone else would call vermin.I allow foxes to scream at my home but if I see a coon here I will take him out.Does this type double standard happen on y'all's side?

You can still respect something you kill on sight in my opinion. Respect works on different levels to. 2 Quote Link to post

Respect works on different levels to. Several people on this forum have no respect at all for coons. 4 Quote Link to post
