Hillary Lampers is a non-hunter. She grew up in a native American community in Montana and grew up despising hunting. Today she is married to Ryan Lampers, and still doesn't hunt, but her kids are being raised as hunters and her perspective of hunting has changed significantly because of Ryan. This is the perspective of a non-hunter on hunting, a perspective that is extremely valuable to convey the truth about hunters to the non-hunting majority.Podcast is brought to you by:Carbon Unwind: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/id1512187506Dog And Gun Coffee: www.dogandguncoffee.comDuck Dens: www.theduckdens.com Pladra: www.pladra.comCivilware: www.civilware.comDew Rosas: https://dewrosas.com/ See more from Blood Origins: https://bit.ly/BloodOrigins_SubscribeMusic: Migration by Ian Post (Winter Solstice), licensed through artlist.io Learn more about your ad choices.
