“See how we fill our freezers and feed our families with home-grown tundra-roaming Alaskan wild game,” wrote Palin on Facebook. “And, PETA, please remember: Alaskans eat, therefore we hunt.”
She also indicated that the episode would showcase the potential for oil drilling in Alaska’s Article National Wildlife Refuge. “You’ll also see us hunting at the edge of ANWR,” Palin promised, “where you can see the uninhabited lands that warehouse billions of barrels of American energy supplies underground just waiting for the political will to allow responsible resource development.”
And for anyone who considers hunting “controversial,” Palin had this message: “Unless you’ve never worn leather shoes, sat upon a leather couch or eaten a piece of meat, save your condemnation of tonight’s episode.”

What can’t Alaskans just grown their own lettuce and tomatoes?
I’m sure most Alaskans actually get most of their food either at Walmart or McDonalds, I’m sure very few have to hunt to stop themselves starting, certainly not Palin and her kin anyway.
Andy
Flown in at great expense.
You stupid southerners know nothing about the North, so shut up.
Andy, its a different culture up there. I was flown in at great expense too……., at Uncle Sam’s expense. Lived there for 4 years. Beautiful place. Never want to go back. Hunting and fishing is a huge part of living in Alaska. There are probably less than 10 WalMarts in the state, which happens to be 2.5 times the size of Texas. Yes, people come to town for their staples. Meat is in an abundance there. All you have to do is go get it before it gets you. The people that do live in town, go out to do one of the few activities given. Hunt and fish. That and drinking is about all there is……….and making sure the cold doesn’t kill you.
Just checked. 6 Walmarts in AK.
Living in a region where animals are hunted for food and where animals are raised for food along with a good portion of the fruits and vegetables also the letter E in PETA is usually replaced with a I to represent the respect that organization deserves.
PITA Pain In The A!
