I wonder if this odd result is from the question not specifying trophy hunting vs. food hunting. If you eat meat it wouldn’t make sense to be against food hunting, but it would make sense if you think they’re hunting deer just to hang a big antler head on your wall
Good point. Most vegetarians and vegans I’ve met have had relatively favorable views of hunting for food, compared to animal agriculture, since it’s such a more sustainable and ethical way to acquire meat
Well, it can be. I knew a guy who talked about some of his (incompetent) deer kills in a way that made me pretty sure he was extending the suffering deliberately. That or he was just a callous dick and a bad shot.
He did kill himself in a 4-wheeler accident though, so sucks to suck I guess.
