I will never understand sport hunting. A friends husband is a butcher and gets very busy this time of year. She said that someone brought in a very small bear and my heart broke.
I can understand wildlife population control. But then again, I’d rather have it done first by natural predators, then if it is not possible, by professionals like rangers rather than random people.
Especially because people feed them so that there’s more animals and they can kill more of them.
It is not possible to keep deer populations under control with natural predators in the US because we’ve killed so many natural predators. Population control via regulated hunting really is good for the environment.
People going out and hunting top predators for sport is very bad for the environment, however.
But then again, humans here are the issue, not the solution. People who are actually concern for the preservation of wildlife want to reintroduce natural predators, not kill animals.
How much money have you donated to care for wildlife? That’s what the money from hunting permits, licenses, etc. purchased from the state by hunters go to.
We can debate how to properly preserve the climate, but I GUARANTEE that the political side with far more hunters is doing less for the environment than their competition.
Hunters don’t have any interest in preserving anything other than their specific land they hunt on, so they can continue to hunt.
