        Thankfully the “sport” seems mosty limited to African safaris where they are purposefully culling a given population. That’s why I reserve my ire until I’ve read the story. In many cases the conservation folks get paid and someone had to cull that animal anyway.

        Now I am all in on feral pig trophy hunting. They’re so bad that Florida has zero bag limits, no season defined and all methods allowed. Weapons free!

                  So your proposal is that chimps and lions are going to stop eating meat when they enter their stone age? In spite of the wealth of evidence to the contrary?

                  I’m okay with expecting better of people, but there is very little that humans do that other species don’t. Eating other animals is just one of them.

                    No that’s not what I proposed at all. Nice straw man though.

                    In spite of the wealth of evidence to the contrary?

                    Source you fucking dweeb XD

                    I expect better of sentience too. After all it created veganism in the first place.

                    All this to say, very few animals practice agriculture and none have left the stone age.
