So, a single shot rifle should work out ok.  What's the problem?
Not with a 100 yard limitation and I am a good shot, but I am not
perfect.
Why should that be everyone else's problem.  Learn to shoot better so
the 100 yards works for you.

Please tell us what this magic cartridge is that works only out to 100 yards
and then becomes inert and is useful for everything from small pests such as
squirrels, etc through deer, black bear, humans on up to elk and polar bear
which are the 2 largest game anuimals on the North American continent.
why would you be killing bears?

You know, humans are the only beings on the planet that kill for
pleasure.  Not very flattering, considering we should know better.
Now *THAT* is utter Disney nonsense.

Cats, dogs, killer whales, and dolphins are known to kill without eating
the kills.
They don't eat always right away, but they don't kill for fun.

Other animals kill for territory or, like male lions killing cubs that
aren't theirs, to ensure their bloodline.

Even rabbits have "wars", as do ants.

There are many variants of animal behavior - humans only copy other animals.

In some ways.  Humans kill recreationally.  Animals don't.

You're still wrong.  Foxes will devastate a hen house, just for the hell
of it.  Dog packs regularly kill farm animals for the same reason and
will kill long after they are sated.

Nothing is for the 'hell of it". It's territorial or it's food.

Never seen a chicken coop after a fox or weasel got in, have you?  "Oh,
the humanity, er, animality!"

Cats will catch a small animal and play with it until it is dead, and
then discard it.

They will go back to it later.  See my previous posting on cat
behavior.

BZZZT!  WRONG!  But thanks for playing.  I thought you said you had cats?

Leopard seals will catch a penguin and strip the skin off it by throwing
it in the air, even when sated.

Large porpoise will kill lesser species of cetaceans for no known reason
- not even for territory.

these last two I really don't know about but sounds territorial.
Animals don't have the thought process to kill for fun.

Utter fucking bull***.  Total lack of knowledge of the animal kingdom.

The attack or kill for these reasons:

1.  Hunger
2.  Territory
3.  Defense
..4.  Bloodline preservation
..5.  Training
..6.  Practice
..7.  Bloodlust
..8.  The Rut
..9.  Fun
..10. Slaves

People kill for fun.

People only emulate animals, being animals themselves.  AFAIK, there is
*NO* human behavior that is not a copy of some animal behavior.

Why is it, in your fevered brain, that only humans can be 'wrong', when
there is no such ethic in the animal kingdom?

Poor Bama!  Having a nosebleed and resorting to his usual dull insults
when he doesn't get his.   Doesn't work well with me.

My statement stands as written.  Animals don't have the thinking
capacity to kill for fun.  That requires a thought process that they
don't have.  

You ever play with a cat and a bit of string?  Or perhaps a dog and a
ball?

They enjoy these activities; they look forward to them; they have fun.

they play on instinct.  Admittedly I know more about cats, being a cat
person.  Cats play because of instinct.  They go after things that
move.  I don't think it's so much playing, but more like an
instinctual thing.  Sure fun to watch though.  
With dogs, who knows.  They're pretty stupid and I think they just
mimic a lot.- Hide quoted text -

I'm a cat person also, although I have a dog too.

The youngest cat's favorite toy is Rat on a Rope (catnip mouse on a
string). When she sees me reaching into the place where the toy is
kept, she gets very attentive (normally, she is very easily
distracted), and issues a specific meow used only under these
circumstances. She has learned what is going to happen, looks forward
to it, and has fun at it.

Dogs aren't necessarily stupid; mine is somewhere in the middle of the
class, so to speak. Again, like the youngest cat, he has learned
where certain items are kept (his leash, his favorite ball), and he
see's me reaching for them, he knows what's going to happen (going for
a walk, chasing the ball). These are things he looks forward to, and
has fun at.
