I do not call these acitivities hunting BUT I don't think that anyone has a right to stop these "Canned Hunts". If a person owns an animal and can find someone who wants to pay for the right to kill the animal, I see no justification for interfernce by the government. The only possible exception would be a situation where the animal was intentionally being tortured, that should be a crime. Being a poor marksman or uneducated regarding the most profecient way to kill an animal should not be a crime, just a tragedy. I have never participated in such a hunt nor would I ever, but just because it doesn't appeal to me doesn't mean that it should be prohibited. Stubby
