Just curious what, if any, major differences there are between hunting normal prey animals and hunting other predators?
I understand the occasional necessity of doing so, but the idea has never caught on with me. I have the (perhaps mistaken) notion it would be more enjoyable to hunt something that has evolved trying to escape being eaten, rather than trying to hunt something that has evolved trying to eat other critters.
Is it more of a challenge to track them and get close enough for a shot, or is it more about the appeal of taking on something with fangs and claws?
