Yes but the meat is too lean and tasteless.

While in the grand scheme of things, an animal going extinct is no big deal, I do think it's terrible that people want to selfishly kill and exploit beautiful creatures like the giant panda and tiger for money. Can I morally condemn the? Hardly, but it makes me sad to see people want to remove beauty and diversity from the natural world.

But really, it's the tiger, rhinoceros, elephant, and so on I feel sorry for. Those giant pandas basically have it coming to them. The stupid f**kers won't even have sex. How does this happen? Gawd...

Luckily we may be moving into a time when sport hunting will start to be seen as the disgusting and cowardly activity it is.   Hunting for meat is different, though Sara Palin's aerial sniping is about as bad as it gets, the little pussy.  

I love meat so I'm not against killing animals, but non-consumptive hunting is next to murder;  worse, it takes advantage of animals' vulnerabilities, and those convicted of illegal or unnecessary slaughter should be imprisoned for a very long time.

I admit that sport hunting creeps me out, but I guarantee you contribute more suffering to the world eating hamburger or chicken than the hunter does killing a deer. Your dramatic distinction between those two because of the intent is bizarre, the act is the same.  And we seriously don't censor pussy? But b*****d and w**k are too hardcore....

We can censor pussy if you want, then dick, willy, peter, john thomas, cock, nuts, balls, plums, stones, tits (including the blue tit, long-tailed tit, coal tit, willow tit, bearded tit, marsh tit and siberian tit), then booby (blue-footed and trap), jugs, mellons, buns, butts... I could continue.
What?

Poaching is indefensible, hunting can be acceptable especially where culling is required for the environments sake and overgrazing. As well as indigenous folk working their land.
 
But as one thread comment said....buying from your local Tesco or Costco is hunting in a roundabout way

Yes I think intent is very important.

I'm fine with hunting for food and population culling in certain circumstances.  I've never understood sport hunting without the food component, and wouldn't participate.  As far as illegal poaching of critically endangered animals, very bad.  In fact people who kill elephants just to cut off their ivory and leave them rot, I'd love to see them hang.

It is the autobleeper after all.  Why not be creative?  Hoo hoo, ding a ling, naughty bits, pee pee, enormous tracks of land...

I mean hunting for sport and poaching is morally probably rather questionable, but I can't really criticize it considering I'm no vegetarian and pay money that helps expand the massive food industry- probably one of the most disgusting and immoral monsters in the world. So yeah it's bad, but in a way we are all immoral in this.

The food argument won't cut it anymore.

Obviously, nature works in such a way that you survive by eating other living things. Fine. 

We used to hunt to be able to survive. Fine.

In 2012, can any human on the planet (minus tribes) survive without hunting? YES.

So, we don't need to do it anymore. If we shared what we farmed properly, the world actually has TOO MUCH food.

And, obviously, taking away anything's life just for fun or sport, is ridiculous.

Don't criticize until you try it.
