This word reminds you of getting in the jungle or the forest and hunt down tigers, bears or lions. It gives the feeling of adventure. Nowadays hunting is considered as sports or hobby.
Some want to keep it in the sports section and some want to define it as the hobby. Today I want to do an open discussion about is hunting a sport or a hobby.
Sport is a platform where you have to show your skill and prove yourself with hard work and patience. On the other hand, the hobby is your personal interest. Through your hobby, you can enjoy the activity you are doing with interest.
Can You Define Hunting As Sports?
For me, hunting is not a sport. In this activity, you do not have to show your skill or winning in a competition. It is just you are killing an animal for no solid reason except your personal interest. As for personal interest, it is definitely your hobby to get the pleasure of killing an animal.
In sports, all players know they are in a competition and they have to fight each other to win. But in hunting the animals don’t even know that they are targeted for killing.
So for me, hunting is only a hobby. For hunting, you have to get dress, take the proper equipment and go to the place where your target is ready to be killed. You do not have to show any skill.
On the other hand for sports, you need to focus and show your skill to defeat your component.
Personally, I do not like hunting as this activity is only for killing innocent animals. I mean what they have done that they need to be killed in such wrong way. The answer of the question is hunting a sport or a hobby is it is the only hobby.
