Short Truths Ep. 2 - Canned Hunts

Our new Short Truths Podcast content series is back and Robbie is answering one of the most common questions we field at Blood Origins. What do you think of so-called ‘canned hunting’.  The idea of canned hunting, high fence hunting, what is fair chase is a common set of questions that we get asked. What is the definition of canned hunting? When is high fence hunting ok? Would you ever high fence hunting? Canned hunting really comes down to the eye of the beholder or in this case the person undertaking the style of hunt, or more likely, the opinion of the person critiquing the individual undertaking the hunt. I wanted to try and address the topic in a very objective, take a couple of steps back from the topic manner. It is such an emotive topic that is very difficult to just think about it for a second. The social science aspect of this is very important. It’s what drives perceptions and drives values at the end of the day drives public opinion around hunting, and that is something to truly consider. We may not have the science to define a canned hunt and probably never will. I probably need to do 10 more of these kind of videos, looking at all sides of the argument, and looking at it through all the multiple lenses that needs to be looked through. So ... here's my first answer on this topic. Do you have a question you would like us to answer? Send us the question at [email protected] or you can text us the question at 620-860-4804.
