SCI HUNTERS' CODE OF ETHICS
Recognizing my responsabilities as a hunter to wildlife, to the habitat necessary to its survival, and to future generations, and acepting those principles of superios sportmanship promulgated by the Safari Club International, I pledge:
... That I shall unfailingly conduct myself in hunting field so as to make a positive contribution to the welfare of both game and non-game species of wildlife, as well as to the ecosytems they occupy.
... That I shall never crease to try to improve my personal skills in woodmanship and markmanship, to assure humane harvesting of wildlife surpluses and to avoid waste of those presious resorces.
... That I will comply all laws regulating wildlife harvest and shall accept my reponsability as a citizen to provide all possible assistance to game law enforcement officers.
... That I sahal always, by word and behavior, reflect only credit upon the great fraternity of sportment-hunters, and demonstrate my abiding respect for the game, for its habitat, for my fellow hunters and those who will come after me, and for the property, whether private or public, whereupon I am privileged to hunt.
... That I will waste no opportunity to each young people, by my personal example and othewise, the full meaning and practice of this Hunters' Code of Ethics.
My device about the HUNT
"The Hunt is a series of technical operations, and so that an activity ends up becoming technique it is necessary that it is not the same thing to act in a way or of other."
(José Ortega y Gasset)
Although
the fundamental thing for us and our obligation toward our descendants is :
"To hunt for to conserve # To
conserve for to hunt"
