Are you fucking me!? With out technology today with have to practice on live animals to do this? Im only 18 but yet if I was stranded and needed to eat and trap animals I would know how to do it already, all you need to use is logic, not difficult. You need to practice over and over again to kill a small animal? Not saying I would do it most likely will never do it but if u have to kill a “bunny” you can snap their necks or a swift blow with something sharp to the back of their heads. As for skinny seriously? And for trapping you just need to be smart and quick. Don’t give me your bullshit. Real soldiers won’t need to do this so I’m not thanking YOU for my freedom.

During survival training we are taught how to trap small animals anywhere from a squirrel to a rabbit. But as stated before there is a mental barrier that must be passed to kill the small animal so you can prepare it to eat. There is nothing evil or wrong with this training and can only be taught in full effectiveness by actually killing, skinning and preparing a small animal for survival. You may see it as barbaric but it is a necessary lesson that must be taught or you will most likely starve while evading and trying to survive. Truthfully I find it sickening that you hold the life of a small animal over that of a member of the armed forces that is trying to stay alive by any means necessary so he/she can fight for your freedom another day. By the way, you’re welcome for your freedom.

How will they ever be able to survive lost in the wilderness if they can’t even catch a rabbit? You will NEVER stumble across a cage of tame rabbits in the middle of nowhere. The soldiers should be taught how to hunt in a real setting and how to make tools and traps to catch these animals. Also, how does operating on a goat blown to pieces teach someone to work on a human? These goats can be shot 70+ times in a row. There will be nothing left to work with and a goat’s anatomy is entirely different from that of a human. War is really pointless anyway. If we all just learned to talk things out we wouldn’t be losing all these poor people in the first place.

This class helps the soldiers learn how to butcher animals and prepare them correctly for eating. For anyone that has ever killed an animal with a knife or spear or something that would be used in a survival situation they know that there is a mental barrier you have to cross to kill a struggling animal. It is harder than you might think, and any hesitation would result in the animal escaping. This class helps the soldiers get over that so they will be able to survive.
I also think its kind of interesting that PETA criticizes the fact that the rabbits are tame…, imagine what they would do if the military was having them catch wild animals, it would be a outrage.
You panzies need to chill and let the military do its thing, military training gets alot of thought and research put into it and it makes amazing warriors.
Ill also quickly mention that the classes responsible for the goat deaths are medical classes that are proven to make some of the best medics in the world. They save alot of human lives.
