Then, they issue (sell) a designated number of "hunting permits" to accomplish this "culling". This raises revenue for the process and enables those who enjoy "hunting", to do so. I think it's a better method than having the "said" agency, merely euthanize a number of animals, to accomplish the goals.

Perhaps (and probably in most instances), it's the same with the big game in Africa. My point was, that I don't understand the satisfaction a hunter might gain, by taking such "easy" shots? And, what is done with the animal afterward?

That is, besides some guy hanging a stuffed head in his parlor.

im an animal lover
if it isnt for food , it shouldnt be shot

im sure people will disagree
