[Jacob-list] "Exotic" Jacob Sheep in canned hunt

[gotothewhip at aol.com]

I dont like to see it... But I guess to me, it is not much different than a ram going to slaughter..... Not quite sure I would call it hunting though..... I guess I HAVE to take this approach about it, as I found out that a ram I sold our first year of owning Jacob's ended up hunted... I sold him to a person "Just getting started in Jacob sheep"  only to find out that he was re sold within a week to a trophy ranch.  He was a fancy young ram that had cool horns.... but related to all of my sheep..... I was initially furious..... But got to thinking about it, and I dont know if it is any worse than having their throats cut by the butcher......I haven't come to a conclusion on that......

I guess I just didn't expect this. I've attached a link to a youtube video of hunters on a hunting ranch shooting a 4h Jacob ram for sport. There are others on youtube as well. Well, I guess there are times when I would agree that my ram, Jericho, is fit to be shot, but not often. It's just kinda weird when you breed them as livestock and use their wool to see them being hunted like deer for sport. Just my opinion.
