You assume that a modern-day Vanderbilt would do the same thing, and that Popular Science would trumpet its success. You cannot apply today's morals and social concience to the past. While some people haven't learned the lessons you have, I like to think most of us would look on this with sadness, but understand that this was a less enlightened time. Farther back, even more so. Just learn from it and don't go back. Bobby,

You’re making a mistake. You assume that a modern-day Vanderbilt would do the same thing, and that Popular Science would trumpet its success. You cannot apply today’s morals and social concience to the past.

While some people haven’t learned the lessons you have, I like to think most of us would look on this with sadness, but understand that this was a less enlightened time. Farther back, even more so. Just learn from it and don’t go back.

There is no rational excuse for killing an entire family, and their massacre violated every rule of Fair Chase, taking only what you can eat and making use of everything that you take. Usage does *not* include entertainment, trophies, fashion accessories, bragging rights or even pseudo-scientific study. This was wrong on so many levels.
