War is irrelevant. No country is going to agree to cease impacting, harvesting, etc wildlife. It’s to hard to monitor, enforce, predict, etc wildlife harvesting. I am not saying humanity needs to protect wildlife because it is the “nice thi

Sorry, but unless there’s an actual link to the agreement, list of countries bound to it, and significant meaningful timely means of enforcement— this is meaningless. As far as I’m concerned, all harvesting or harming of wildlife sea or oth
