#WeirdWednesday on Tex Grebner Outdoors, back again and ready to make it weird.  In this week's video, I run you through the mythology of hunting.  It begins with my opinion on hunting being an inherent part of our humanity.

Then I go over whether it be for ritual, sport, or need, we do certain things as human beings that speak to the monomyth theory, popularized by Joseph Campbell in his book, "The Power of Myth".  This spawns into the ethics of hunting and how the act of hunting can be no different than any religion that exists today.
