I am also a vegetarian, so there is no way I could kill a deer or any other animal.

I was a copy editor for a company that published outdoors magazines for 30 states. I was not a vegetarian when I first began working there, but after having to read and edit all those hunting stories, I became one. But these magazines were all about trophy hunting. Woe be to any poor buck that had a 10-point or more rack.
