Here's a few hunting terms for you

Deer = harvest or wildlife management
Pig= removed from ecosystems
Coyote = silence a voice
Raccoon = sweet justice
Exotic = wildlife diversification

hate that term. I never use it. It would make me feel like I'm kissing some tree hugger's a**. No more X-mas in stores. Now it's the "holidays". This politically correct crap stuff is starting to get so rediculous. "We're going to harvest a deer!" Wheeeee.
I don't use it either, but don't make much of a big deal out of it.

I "pick" vegetables in the garden, and shoot, or kill animals when I hunt.

Seems so simple.

And to me, it's Christmas, not x-mas.

The "X" comes from the Greek letter Chi, which is the first letter of the Greek word Χριστός, translated as "Christ".

The X isn't taking "Christ" out of Christmas! It means the same thing! I personally would prefer leaving it as Christmas, but Xmas is a whole lot better than "Happy Holidays!" That really just ticks me off!!
Haha Sorry Thought I would help clear things up

In reference to deer (and other edible game)...Where I come from we still kill it, cook it, and eat it.

And its still Christmas here too...

Redneck hillbilly and proud of it...
