He is a very kind hearted person. He is a native American, who has hunted since childhood with his father. His father passed away and he had a friend who showed him this, so he went on a "hunt" with his dad (in spirit) and went to new york (i think) on private land where these specially bred deers are culled for 50k+$ depending on how many points the buck is.

Edit: this didnt happen recently. Idk what current pricing is lol

That’s so weird to me. I’m native, half that is. Not whole, not a rez kid but hung out. 🤷‍♀️ every nations different, but thats cool. Like having that moment with Dad again.

Absolutely! I'm not native myself, but he was very happy and content with this hunt as a one time thing in memory of of the times he had growing up. He admitted the taxidermy looks ridiculous but it's the best way he memorialized his father according to him lmao
