Definitely. The way I heard it he gave up wildfowling when he shot, but didn’t kill, a goose and he couldn’t dispatch as it had came down in an inaccessible spot. All the time it was very slowly dying its mate was circling above calling out to it. At that moment did he wish he’d never been a wildfowler? All in all I think field sports are a pretty shitty way for people to get into natural history/conservation, for every Peter Scott you’ve got umpteen divits that love the Field Sports Channel.
