What part of conservation is she talking about? I can’t believe a member of the so-called “gentle sex” could be in favour of the slaughter and maiming of birds and animals. Not only in favour but encouraging it, too.

What a hard-hearted creature she must be, never to consider what it must be like to be hunted and persecuted. I hope she gets some of her own medicine.
