That's ridiculous!

At least it's not a rat, cat or dog.

Just think how sorry the meat would taste

with all that adrenaline after fighting it

that long.

Would have been much better to knock it in the

head with his hammer if he couldn't use a gun

there. OR stick it with a blade to the heart.

I kept wondering when the magnificent steel blade would come out and stick him in the heart or cut the jugular. Be Well, Packy.

I suppose when you have all the time in the world, you can do things the hard way.

It was still interesting to watch a hunter from elsewhere do his chores.

I do not think firearms are legal in Japan, but bows are. This is not my culture, but I have to think in that culture there are accepted methods to deliver a quicker kill.

I have hunted in Japan many times, mostly for Sika Deer with a bit of Brown Bear hunting.

Firearms are legal but very much restricted with many rules, regulation & regular checks, Shotgun is the first & easiest step then much later they can up grade to a rifle, Bows are legal to own but illegal to take game with Japan wide, there is a small window on that if animals have been deemed to be pests & pests can be taken by any means Eg : Bow but this is a little Grey area & you would not get away with this on the main land .

Trapping & Snare also have rules but is a legal means to take game, this video shows a method used a lot in Asia not something I enjoy viewing or even thinking about, more like a Serial killer than a hunting method to me !

Ain't that the truth?
I couldn't put my finger on what I was watching but you summed it up pretty well.

It was still interesting to see another culture at work.

Not what i was expecting but interesting. After the first 2 min all I could
think was those adrenal glands are at 200%. Not what you want for quality meat.
I suppose after he got the pig home and unloaded and maybe left it for several hours it had time to calm down before the buthcering process.

Just a hunter using the tools at his disposal. Is it any difference to fur trapping?

Yes, somewhat different.
I doubt many fur trappers take their critters home alive and I'd say most don't use them for the meat. So, the trapping ang killing is where it's parallel. Everything else is different.

I actually have no issue with how it was done and I have stated it was interesting to watch. I'm sure he has access to a knife to make the kill once trapped and secured but.... Bringing it back alive to "preserve" the meat I guess is a viable option but not in my mind.

Funny you should say that, when I lived in Outback QLD we would catch Pigs with the Dogs & the guys would tied them up, put on the Ute, take them back to the station (farm house) & put them in holding pen for some weeks, feed them extra good feed & then slaughter for eating.

No one around that area ate wild shot Pigs !

Later when shooting for the chillers, we would start on dusk, catch & tie the pigs early in the night, then start to shoot in the early morning & before heading to chiller kill & gut the tied up animals, this keeps them fresher on warm QLD nights.

It never sat well with me this sort of thing, when in the NT the Aboriginals would catch a bunch of huge Turtles, bring them back to the village or coast, flip them over & stab a spear through one flipper pinning them to the beach or ground, again to keep them alive & fresh till being killed or thrown onto a cooking fire on the beach upside down to cook in their shells.

Old Steve Irwin would of had a seizure !
