I believe hunting is good because it helps feed those in need‚ it helps control the population of wild animals‚ and it helps farmers

Although the notion of ‘belonging’ entails a need for acceptance by others‚ the first barrier one must face is coming to terms with one’s own identity. This essay‚ I will explore two interrelated issues. First‚ it is the inability to reconcile one’s identity that prevents one from belonging. Second‚ it is only through engaging with one’s surrounding that a better sense of self may be achieved. These themes are expressed in Peter Skrzynecki’s suite of poems‚ the Immigrant Chronicles (1975)‚ where

Importance of hunting. Like baseball and apple pie‚ hunting is an American tradition shared by young and old‚ rich and poor‚ regardless of social or economic status.
