This is kind of an odd reaction. In most countries hunting is a way to control animal population and prevent the spread of diseases amongst certain populations. I also live in a country where arms are heavily regulated, but you can still call some form of animal protections services who will take care of the animal and even kill it if deemed necessary.
- ljw1001 10y agoUm. I'm not entirely against hunting, but first came the hunting; then the animal-control justification for it. You could argue that it might be wiser to let nature take its course, but hunting is popular and game is delicious.
- mikestew 10y agoIn most countries hunting is a way to control animal population After hunting, in a dictionary definition of irony, killed off all the natural predators of the animals that need "control". So I don't think parent was an odd reaction in light of "we created a problem by killing animals, so the obvious solution is more killing!", the outgrowth of which is "got a problem with an individual animal? Just kill it!" Now you might not agree, but can you at least understand how someone might have an "odd reaction" when someone's first suggestion to the problem is to pick up a gun?
