You don't need to force feed the goose or duck. I've been making Foie gras for years without force feeding the poor animal. It taste the same, just smaller portion.
Fattened liver can be produced by alternative methods without gavage, and this is referred to either as "fatty goose liver" or as foie gras (outside France), though it does not conform to the French legal definition, and there is debate about the quality of the liver produced.[citation needed] This method involves timing the slaughter to coincide with the winter migration, when livers are naturally fattened.[51] This has only recently been produced commercially, and is a very small fraction of the market.
While force feeding is required to meet the French legal definition of "foie gras", producers outside France do not always force feed birds in order to produce fattened livers that they consider to be foie gras, instead allowing them to eat freely, termed ad libitum. Interest in alternative production methods has grown recently due to ethical concerns in gavage-based foie gras production. Such livers are alternatively termed fatty goose liver, ethical foie gras, or humane foie gras.
The terms ethical foie gras or humane foie gras is also used for gavage-based foie gras production that is more concerned with the animal's welfare (using rubber hoses rather than steel pipes for feeding). Others have expressed skepticism at these claims of humane treatment,[52] as earlier attempts to produce fattened livers without gavage have not produced satisfactory results.[53]

I stand corrected.

Maybe you too need to read fishing regulation in the state of Washington before you make a statement like that. Please tell me DeepBlue what spearing fishing is allowed in the state of Washington in area 10 where the divers were diving. I still stand by my statement. " It is sad story, but what where the divers doing spear fishing out if season?". Karma rules!!!

It is a sad story, but what where the divers doing spear fishing out of season.

Where should we start??? You put all the blame on one party. I believe both parties agreed to both wars. I believe both parties agreed to bailed the banks and auto industry. BTW, I'm not a millionaire, just a working stiff tried of everyone telling me I have to share my money with those who don't want to work for a living. Are you a art student?

Amen. The Hunter need to be charge with Murder.

I understand your point, but we still have someone killed. This person didn't deserve to died like this. The only person at fault is the person who pulled the trigger, not the hiker. Plain and simple.

The only person to blame here is the Hunter. I'm a hunter and I would never shoot until I know what I'm shooting at. Yes, the hiker should have been wear bright colors, but it is not his fault not one bit. I hope the hunter goes to jail for he rest of his life. He took an life and now he has to pay for his mistake. I'm really tired of people not taking responsibly for their actions or non-actions...

Mutator, What is wrong with you??? It takes more than being born here to be a true American. Anwar al-Awlaki was nothing more than a bully. True blue Americans stand up to bullies and don't hide in other counties or behind lawyers. WE STAND PROUD AND WILL DO EVERYTHING IN OUR POWER TO STOP PEOPLE LIKE Anwar al-Awlaki. We are not prefect in anyway, but we never stand down when freedom is being threaten and we never hide. People like you make me sick.
