I distinctly understand hunting wildlife to eat, are causing danger to your property or if they are causing harm to your land (like wild hogs overpopulated in Most of Texas), however I will never understand hunting these exotic and largely docile creatures.
Just absolutely disgusting.
- a3voices 11y agoCould you understand hunting humans to eat them? If a child decided to ruin your flowerbed, should it be ok to shoot the child? The evolutionary gap between lions and humans is only in the tens of millions of years. In my opinion, it should only be acceptable to kill animals in self defense. They are all conscious beings like us. That said, I'm not a vegetarian, and I care more about my selfish desires than what is right or wrong.
- splat 11y agoI've never had much of an inclination to hunt myself, but I know a guy who periodically makes hunting trips in Africa. According to him the meat is usually given to local villagers. They also target older males in the group to give younger males the chance to mate. I have no idea if any of that happened in this particular hunt, though. (I'm also relating this all second-hand, so I can't totally vouch for its accuracy.)
