What do we do in the mean time? You know that eco-system recovery is a veeery long process. Also idk if that is another case of US-exceptionalism but that would be the first time I heard of the practice of breeding deer just to release them for hunting (not smth I know from continental europe)
The model of requiring a license for hunting with a ~ a year of prior training (or some other proof of the necessary knowledge for those who grew up with it for example) and restricting it to certain times and species as long as we haven’t introduced natural predators again (which is not always viable, mind you) is a good model imo

Animal agriculture will be gradually stopped till the problem is fixed.
Sure in the meantime is gonna be a mess but that doesn’t make hunting ethical.
I’m not American myself but yes I’ve heard it’s done in the US, I believe I’ve also heard of it done here in Denmark tho.
No amount of prep, education or restrictions is gonna make needlessly killing others okay.
Am too much of a pragmatist to see veganism as morally superior tbh
Don’t you think that being against animal abuse and refusing to participate in it is morally superior to directly funding animal abuse?
