        <description>With a passion for hunting and shooting, Keith Drain has mostly written about these topics &#45; which is lucky for him as he is the editor of http://www.huntandshoot.com.au &#45; an online hunting and shooting magazine. 

Keith likes to look at everything with a sceptical eye, this means that his bullshit&#45;o&#45;meter is always on and he is never afraid to point the BS out, which is how he came to write for The Punch. Of course like everyone, he is not always right and is happy to admit it when hard evidence proves him wrong.</description>

            <title>Hunting and killing exotic animals can help save them</title>
            <link>http://www.thepunch.com.au/articles/hunting-and-killing-animals-can-help-to-save-them/</link>
            <description>Last week The Punch published this piece which is critical of Federal MP Bob Katter and his financial backers, who had been photographed posing with &#8216;extinct in the wild&#8217; and exotic animals, including a giraffe. This is a response to that article.


My name is Keith Drain, I am a hunter and shooter, I run www.huntandshoot.com.au, a hunting and shooting news website. I am 27 years old, I have a beautiful wife and I work as a manager at a cinema. If you met me you&#8217;d think I was a regular guy &#45; that&#8217;s because I am. 

Like many others, I was introduced to shooting and fishing by my Dad. Hunting to me is an enjoyable and rewarding pastime. I get to go out and do what I love doing, I get to provide meat for my family and my dogs and I get to help the environment by ridding the land of feral and introduced species, which to me is very important.&amp;nbsp; I have no shame in owning firearms or hunting.</description>
