Every animal shouldn't be food oga. You want to eat cow, goat, fish, snail, bushmeat, tortoise, chicken, snake, dog etc. And when you finish eating them and they go extinct what next? Eat human?
They can't go extinct because they also reproduce. It is a continuous process,and yes God gave us power over them. undecided

Why must everything be killed in Nigeria? Why do many countries prefer to keep certain animals alive, yet we keep killing and eating same animals some countries think should be preserved.
Are that hungry? Are we that backward?
The outside world already thinks we are savages no matter our levels of education, exposure and experience, why make them think they're right with acts like this?

In exquisite way of promoting culture and peaceful cohesion among members of a given community, the people of Isiokpo and Akpulu both in Ideato North local Government Area of Imo State embarked on village hunting which they tagged "Isiopko/Akpulu Hunting Festival" which holds every January.

Hunting was one of the unique sources of livelihood among the olden generations. During the time of our fore fathers, a successful hunter upholds a strong recognizable title in the community. But the emergence of civilization has diminished this process, by relegating it to an inferior poor group of people in the society.
But its worthy of emulation that people of Isiopko and Akpulu rejected the extinction of this simple cultural practice. 'The Igbo culture can never go into extinction'

At the begining of every January, they will map out a particular day that will be free and convenient for them to embark on the hunting festival.
Majority see it as s simple way of catching fun, but the attached benefit it upholds can never be overemphasised, it creates unity, love, understanding among the members of communities.

During the evening time, the Bush Meats they captured will be slaughtered, cooked, roasted or grilled and different brands of wine/drinks will be gulped for merriment.

Its always fun that majority return for Christmas every year because of it, both those from abroad. Some of the members make donations so that the wide merriment, fun, dance etc will reach the required satisfaction they need for everybody.

This year made it 7 years the festival was initiated into the community.
When they started newly, only few people came out for the program, but as time moves on, majority started noticing the benefit and trooped in.

According to Justin Milaman Offor, they captured African Civet (known as Edi Ura or Edi abali in Igbo) in this year's hunting festival. The animal evaded them twice, but at the third time they determined to capture it, and which they succeeded.

The Isiokpo/Akpulu Hunting Festival is headed by Obumneme Offor as the Chairman, Okechukwu Ezenwaka, the Vice Chairman and Justin Milaman Offor the Secretary.

So much ignorance. If not for the efforts of wildlife experts and government support in some nations like in East African wildlife parks do you know how many animals would have gone extinct by now?

It is the only language the real bigots seem to understand; they are being given a taste of their own medicine and therefore slowly beginning to appreciate what if feels like to be at the end of incessant unwarranted insults and abuses; eventually they will come to realise that they do not have a monopoly of bigotry and will get as much as they dish out; hopefully they will know the meaning of mutual respect - until then, the lesson will continue till we reach detente.

Easy for you to say because you are not the animal in question. Ever wondered why animals don't want to die? Why do they try to survive if their sole purpose is to be eaten?
