I understand the reasoning if the animal is overpopulating a certain area and posing a risk to people and/or property. I just meant is the killing warranted if people are hunting solely for a thrill or as a pastime.
I'm like that too but going by what you've described I would have to agree with seeing a doctor, which isn't quite as bad as the stress, pain and potential for a long-term problem.
Or, as miamisammy said, tequila, always good to have a plan B.
