  • When young my grandad took me poaching we hunted everything from rabbit to otter

    The rabbits we ate

    The fox and otter we sold the fur

    He then got me a job with the local butcher working at the cattle mart where I assisted him getting his pigs sheep and cattle into the trucks and back to the slaughter house

    I can remember watching the bolt gun hit the animal between the eyes before they were bled out and hung

    I even shot a few myself

    It's life things get killed to be eaten why is it so shocking that a crocodile got killed to be eaten


    If the croc had been killed and not eaten then I can understand it


    Murderer
  • I agree with the general sentiment on this thread, that thousands of animals die every day as a means to feed us. But I don't think that justifies killing a crocodile for the purpose of entertainment. Makes me feel just as uneasy as those who go to Africa to shoot lions.

    I hope the other cayman eats him in the next episode.

    Did you see him on the first week nervously explaining away his swastika tattoo?
  • Classic "I haven't seen this but that does not prevent me from having a strong opinion!" Cue the show getting more complaints than it did viewers.
  • Well i think we can all agree that Bear Grylls is a stupid bloody name.
  • Dress it up how yvou like, Bear Grylls you have to fake it to make it, total arsehole all done for the cameras and edited and to kill a baby croc for entrainment is just shamefull, man is a prick probably couldn't survive a night in bostall woods.
    Why people buy into edited tv is beyond me.

    You've not seen the show, have you?
    No

    It's on tonight, pull your head out of your arse and watch it.

    Is the motion of the swastika not reversed for the nazi version ?
  • "it means peace, love and unity"

    way to dig yourself out of that hole old boy!

    indeed it is.
  • The point is, is that the animal was killed purely for entertainment. Nothing else. You're kidding yourself if you genuinely think the producers would let them starve or that they're actually isolated.

    I bet he's never Grilled a Bear in his life, bloody plastic Ray Mears!

    Bear is a nickname. His Christian name is fairly ordinary.

    The cayman was killed to be eaten in which both entertainment and feeding people was being accounted for.

    The cayman was not PURELY killed for entertainment or they wouldn't have been allowed to eat it. That would be a second motive and clouds your so called pure reasoning.

    They did it in a humane way to get a meal. They probably didn't kill it sooner as they probably didn't want the meat to spoil. Probably.

    HUMANELY: I'd kill a chicken to eat it. I'd kill a rabbit to eat it. I'd kill cow to eat it. I would kill a lamb to eat it. I'd definitely kill a deer to eat it.

    Why is that Cayman's demise any different?

    But it wasn't done purely for entertainment because they ate it, they didn't just kill it and have a laugh about it.
  • Well they could have eaten the same meal as the huge production crew, cameramen, sound men and Uncle Tom Cobbly that were there with them. On that basis the croc died needlessly save for the purposes of the programme. Therefore solely entertainment.

    no production crew, cameramen, soundmen or uncle anything there with them. They have been given cameras to film themselves

    Entertainment doesn't have to make people laugh.

    Lol. Yeah right.

  • Any different to killing a chicken or a lamb?

    Nope. Just the reason behind it.

  • What reason? Presumably to eat it?

    If the guys on the island were not on the island eating croc, they would be at home eating other meats. But probably a lot more meat.

    Thanks for that link. I' m still not convinced it's quite as perilous as being made out but it's an interesting link nonetheless.

    Really ?

    Its true. In the first episode they explained that 3 of the blokes had been given a crash course in using and maintaining the cameras. The whole group had also had a crash course in basic survival techniques....how to start a fire, finding and preparing drinkable water, what fruits of the island to avoid etc. All they have are the clothes they stand in, 3 machetes, 2 knives...and probably a radio to call base in an emergency.

    Now I know a number of you won't believe it....but until proved otherwise these are the only facts we can go on about the show. Of course they wouldn't let them starve etc but they are prepared to leave them unassisted for as long as possible. One thing is for certain, they were fuckin' starving when they caught, killed and ate that Caimen.

  • Check the link Draize, it was actually three of Bear's crew stranded with them doing the filming
  • Yeah, of course, that croc came along just when a few blokes with hairy chests started to get a bit hungry.
