    I don't believe in hunting for "sport", for a trophy of an animal.

    I do believe and agree with hunting to control animal populations, especially if they're getting out of control.

    For example: I remember several years ago, the deer population where I live was getting out of control, and the car accident rate went up, and other things with cars statistic wise went up as well.
    To help the safety of children, families, adults in general, I was perfectly fine with them killing more deer, and controlling their population.

    I could never hunt for sport. I think that it is cruel, but just like when people talk about a mother choosing to live, when the statistics are, that the baby is probably going to die anyways, I don't consider that an abortion at all. I find that hunting when is needed would be morally fine in general.

    For example: to help control an overabundance of an animal population, that would ultimately or could ultimately cause harm to humans, or even I believe the word is ecosystem/ our World, or regions/parts of our World in general, and ultimately destroy other animal populations/species, if they weren't controlled.

    Also, if I were starving to death, or needed clothing, I would definitely hunt. If I had a family, and they needed food, and I didn't have the luxury of buying it at the store, I would hunt for them.
