People kill animals. Ain't it a shame? And they do it with guns! Probably for weird reasons having to do with sexual insecurities. Woe is us!
Chapter titles such as: "Virgin Huntresses and Bleeding Feasts," "The Sobbing Deer," "The Sick Animal," "The Rich Smell of Meat and Wickedness," "The Sorrows of Eohippus," and (my personal favorite) "The Killer Ape" (Guess which ape! The author seems unaware that baboons and chimpanzees kill and eat flesh, too.).
If you're one of those who thinks that people who eat meat and people who own guns could correct evolution if they'd all get together and kill each other, this is the book for you. If you're not one who thinks so, you might not like this book.
