I agree that there is a difference, but a very small difference. Even animals share their prey with those who didn't participate in the hunt.

If the general population started eating hunted meat, vast agricultural areas would be returned to nature, giving a slight offset to that problem.

But jumping back to reality, those people who actually hunt and purchase hunted meat right now are people who care about nature and shepherd it with responsibility. They can safely ignore any hacker that starts yapping about some law written by unnatural people.

I don't think the math works here. There isn't enough agricultural area on the planet to sustainably generate enough hunted Calories for the general population.


I wrote "slight offset".


The selling of hunted meet to the general population for profit is a very very slippery slope.
