Me too. I was hunting in December on Douglas Island and it was cold. I had been hunting for days for deer.

All deer were legal. A small fawn popped up and looked right at me. I shot it with a 30-06. After I shot it, its parents came back to look for him and I shot at them to.

But worse I once shot at a "marmot", just to watch it die.

I did a complete 180 and started communing with trees-lol.

>>I shot and killed a bird with my pellet gun when I was young, just to see it die. Don't know why I did that but, after that I didn't want to kill things.<<

I had the exact same experience, except it was a BB gun and I didn't shoot it to see it die, I just shot it because I wanted to see if I could hit it. When I did, I felt bad, and didn't shoot any more birds. Until I grew up and shot dove with a shotgun. At least I ate them, spitting out the lead pellets as I encountered them.
