Yeek. The creepy Craig's List land postings aimed at hunters just don't end. Does this listing's conflation of snowmobiling, boating and skiing with killing deer, turkeys and fishes bother anyone else? On the one hand you have innocent fun running around in the outdoors (or, you know, polluting it with a snowmobile, but whatever), and on the other hand, you have hunting down a living being and violently extinguishing his life so you can eat his flesh and maybe stuff his skin so you can hang his dead body on your wall for posterity. That's "sport"? Seriously?
Anyway, using a list of free-living animals currently living on a piece of land as an incentive to folks who would like to come and kill them to come buy said land, is, in my opinion, disgusting and sad. Every time I see a listing like this one I want to buy the land just to save the animals from being killed off by some other buyer who's actually attracted to land listings like this one.
