Yes because an animals life is so much more valuable than that of a humans. Troll.

How is that a troll comment? Also, what/who makes you the judge of who's life is more valuable. I was just making a comment that for once the animal got justice.

Far fetched, but useful as an example. Highly evolved aliens come to Earth and randomly destroy metropolis's for fun just like Humans destroy ant hills for fun. "Oh the humanity!!! /woman runs off screaming and crying" Does that mean that our life is less valuable than the aliens because they are smarter/more evolved? Just because an animal can't talk or walk upright does not mean they don't deserve to live.

BTW, 99% sure he wasn't hunting for food, but for sport...

Now I call YOU out as being a Troll, Troll.

We're so screwed when the Wraith get here....

Anyways, that is pretty stupid to go free-diving for large fish (diving in general for large fish, I suppose, doesn't make the most sense in general).

Does that mean without scuba gear?

Most likely.

free diving is fins, mask and snorkel. He held his breath, dove down, speared the fish, got tangled, drowned...

A knife is standard geaer for a scuba diver not sure what the free diving/spearfishing conventions are...

Free diving means no SCUBA gear.

EDIT: It was stupid to shoot that fish, you can't eat them when they are that large. They get a lot of worms and parasites in their flesh.

People have been killed before free diving for fish & lobsters. Lobsters will often hide in hide holes where eels are. They have a sybiotic relationship, the eels provide protection for the lobsters. Free divers have reached in for a lobster and been bitten by an eel. If you try to pull your hand out, the eel will bite down harder and gather itself in the hole. You'll drown. One must relax their hand (not pull in panic) and the eel will release it.

have you ever been bitten by an eel?

No, I always look very carefully before I reach my hand in a hole. While diving for lobster, I have seen eels under the coral in with the lobster. I try to chase the lobster out of the hole.

If I can't see in the hole, I don't reach in.

Well, he IS right about it being survival of the fittest when you put yourself on their ground.

Also agreeing with sinucus. If you're not hunting for food, not that much sympathy from me if the animal takes you out.
