I've seen in the past the explanation that hunting as a sport under the excuse of 'controlling the population of prey animals' is bullshit because in a short time the Department of Fish and Wildlife actually begins stocking and raising more deer for hunters to hunt.
I'm looking to form a good collection of sources that can be cited when someone brings up "hunting as a necessary evil" and associated arguments.
As of right now we’ve murderer most of the animals that would prey on deer. So you can argue it’s necessary in that regard. We need to reintroduce wolves and grizzlies to their historic ranges tbh or what we can
Is there really a difference between humans killing [x] deer a year and humans deliberately creating environmental conditions that kill [x] deer a year, materially or morally?
