If the person killing the animal wants to mount the head or rack I have no problem with that, he paied his money he can do what he wants with it. Regular fencing usually 4-5 feet high is no impediment to the movment of deer or elk and taking an animal in those conditions is fair chase and in my opinion is hunting. |
I totally agree. Good post.
