alt Hacker NewsI know this is absolutely not the point, but I wanted to touch on the "hunting = bad for nature" idea.
All animals die, and dying from a clean rifle shot is preferable to 99.9% of the ways animals will die in the wild.
Regulations like bag limits and license lotteries prevent over-hunting, and in many situations (like the wild boars in Italy) hunting is an ecologically positive activity, as it reduces populations that would otherwise explode and destroy its own ecosystem.

Yea, useful info.
But you said it yourself, that's not the point. So why talk about it up at all?
Like, OP could have skipped that tidbit of backstory, but there's no harm done in including it. While you could have skipped this entire reply, which pushes (your/an) idea and a specific view of the world.
And yea, I could have skipped mine too. But... that's not the point, lol.
were still hunter/gatherers, watching nature and learning its cycles, bending it toward a greater good is all our default state, we are the shapers of earth its our role here.
