This document discusses hunting and fishing. It notes that hunting has been practiced worldwide since ancient times for food, recreation, and tradition. Fishing involves catching fish, either commercially or recreationally. While environmentalists argue these activities can harm the environment, the document asserts these problems can be addressed by obeying laws, cleaning up trash, and using environmentally friendly gear. It outlines some California laws that regulate hunting and fishing bag limits to prevent overharvesting and prohibit hunting from moving vehicles. The document concludes that, if laws are followed and alternatives to lead are used, the environment need not be permanently damaged by these activities.
