Hunting is an activity that involves killing wild animals for sport or just to for food. This activity is one of the most ancient activities on the planet earth along with sex, masturbation, and crapping. Hunting is an important part of Earth's ecosystem and nessesary for life as we know it to continue.
It's also a major source of lulz.
Hunting in Nature
Despite what uninformed retards like PETA and Vegans may think, hunting is not a human pastime.
Animals hunt and eat each other. This is part of nature's grand design. As long as there have been animals, there has been hunting. Even when there are nothing but herbivores in an area, animals will kill and sometimes eat each other. This is because animal bodies contain a unique balance of enzymes, minerals and vitamins that help nourish the bodies of other animals. For example, when the grass is short and low quality, cows have been known to scavenge the bones of dead animals, even hunting and eating whole rabbits to supplement their diets with important phosphorus, calcium and other nutrients.
Some animals are just meant to eat other animals. They can't survive on plants alone because their digestive track is the wrong length. If you feed a lion nothing but tofu and plants it will slowly starve to death. Many animals such as apes, raccoon and humans can survive on plants alone for a little while, but without the required proteins, vitamins, and fats meat provides we, too, will starve just like the lion!
Hunting Helps the Environment
Responsible hunting actually helps the environment. Nature should take care of itself when left alone, but we humans just can't leave anything alone for long. Bleeding hearts want to protect the cute little deer, bunnies, squirrels, and other adorable "harmless" animals from the "big bad wolves/panthers/hawks/ect". They think the reason there aren't more cute animals is because predators are killing them.
The problem is that without predators like coyotes and wolves around, the cute little animals breed constantly until there are too many of them. Soon they spread disease among each other, their bodies weak from starvation because there just isn't enough food for them all. The population of now decidedly less cute animals collapses under it's own weight. Let's just say bunnies aren't so cute when covered in mange, starving, and dying from Myxomatosis.
Now, the same dumb fucks that said "let's kill all the predators" are still around. Whenever someone tries to re-introduce wolves in a reasonable fashion, expect farmers and wolfaboos to baww over wildlife management, and animals like panthers and badgers aren't much better off. This means humans need to step in. Every deer taken prevents lyme disease from reaching out cities. Ever bunny turned into stew allows endangered wildflowers to recover. Every invasive grey squirrel made into a hat allows endangered red squirrels a chance to survive.
Humankind and hunting
Dumbfucks known as poachers have ruined the reputation of ethical hunters, who follow all laws and care about the environment. A real hunter cares about the earth, and does his best to inform non-hunters about the good things hunting does for the planet. Unfortunately, there are people known as poachers who make all hunters look like heartless fucks who kill things for no reason.
