:downbear: Responsible hunting replaces the predators that our ancestors destroyed or adds a predator to invasive species. Ideally we'd have the wolves back, but some places like the everglades would be even worse off if it weren't for game management.
There's a lot of reasons people hunt. Idk if I'd say a big blanket statement like that.
Like for the rare exceptions with indigenous people who are entitled to it, hunting is wrong in every other circumstance.
Not to start a struggle session, but literally every culture in the world hunts. If hunting is bad then it's bad for everyone.

Also wtf kind of predator do we have to introduce to keep giant hogs from just going around wrecking what little we haven't?
Even mountain lions rarely go after adult boar.
we must engineer a super-wolf, or a great-big lion to compensate in the ecological arms race
I mean we could import tigers, but then they'd probably compete with mountain lions.
mountain-tiger, an unholy synthesis. the perfect predator. lock up your goddang kids
I don't think you can breed them, mountain lions are more closely related to house cats than tigers or lions.
not with that attitude you ain't
Ooh yeah it's Jurassic Park time 🦖
